I'm not trying to defend anything, and I'm not trying to be negative towards you. But I don't at all understand what you expect. Have you seen the same issue with Debian? Is it just a Kubuntu issue? or more general? I run Debian for my servers, such as the one running SqueezeBoxServer. Support is expensive, and nearly all companies allocate support money in direct proportion with the number of users using that flavor. So most companies do something like 86% Windows, 14% OS-X, and a percent or so for all else. Kubuntu is a subset of Ubuntu, so its way under a portion of that one percent. Debian is where all the real work is done, and where all the testing is done. So I suggest you try it using Debian as part of the problem isolation. IMHO, the reality is that supporting assorted Linux distros is so far down the priority list that it is not going to happen except by luck. The Radio, which was released last Fall as a commercial product is riddled with bugs. They have not been fixed because all of the engineers have been working on the Touch. Now that the Touch is out, I expect that they will be beating down the production bugs in the Touch, and then get to the bugs in the Radio. There are, of course, still bugs in the Duet, Boom, and even Transporter. I expect that community support is all you will get. By the time the list is short enough, the Boom 2 and Touch 2 will be sucking all the oxygen out of the air. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
