Our CIO removed the Ubuntu Servers and went back to Microsoft. He also re-implemented XP workstations to alleviate the malicious attitudes some workers had regarding Ubuntu. And we dual-booted the field engineers and sales personnel notebooks. But most of them are using the XP boot partition. We have Jaunty on the other partitions but it's just too buggy for them to use. They have problems with Skype, sound volume is a big issue for them, CPU's running way too hot, USB devices not recognized, printing, scanning, evolution email working intermittently, and a other quirks. Ubuntu is light years away before it will be accepted by business professionals. Even with all the bugs and glitches in XP; its still better than Ubuntu. Ubuntu worked at one time but its grown into a problematic OS. It simply doesn't work anymore and we don't have time to tinker with the simple things that work in other operating systems.
We still have 8.04 LTS running on a few machines and it's fairly stable now. After almost a year of updates things have settled down some. Kernel panic is always a challenge and most employees don't understand. They just want their computer to work so they can do their job. Thanks for getting back to us. -- Kernel update 2.6.24.22 breaks PC's-Notebooks... computertemp; hddtemp; halts splash and boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303634 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
