I couldn't install on real hardware, only on VirtualBox. Couple of observations The installer DVD still displays 13.10. Not sure when this is planned to change, just thought I mention it. I was confused the first time I installed alpha 2, I epxected something like "14.04 A2" There seems to be something funny going with the mouse scroll wheel: if I scroll down too fast, the menu first jumps up before it scrolls down. As a result, when at the bottom of a list and still scrolling it keeps looping over the last few entries. Very annoying to me. I noticed it first in the applet list trying to install a new panel applet. When I moved the mousewheel real fast in the file open dialog from gnumeric, I could make the main gnumeric window jump to different places on the desktop. This is VirtualBox, though, so it may be a virtualBox driver problem but I have not seen that in other version of xubuntu under virtual box. Othrwise it looks great. I do have a question: is anybody testing the behavior of NVidia Optimus support (bumblebee)with the kernel that gets released? I did see some posts that bumblebee has a probem with kernel 3.13 and bumblebee not working would throw me a curve ball when I need to upgrade my main machine because as 12.04 EOL. Ditto with wireless. In all my previous updates wireless support never worked out of the box. I realise this is probably the ubuntu folks and beyond xubuntu's scope but may be a consideration for kernel selection (I read a lot of bumblebee problems with kernel 3.13). --
