Wow, I googled ubuntu bugs and found this. I have to say I'm not impressed with the thinking (or lack their of) that went in to reporting this bug. Linux is an effective open source operating system, it is not intended to be Nike, Apple, or Microsoft.
I also have concerns about the number of releases. Karmic was quite buggy and I heard many people reinstalling the system. Perhaps 2 a year is too many. I use my computer for scientific computing and managed to make it work with an upgrade without a reinstall. I had to disable ufw at grub. Currently I use Karmic and I have used ubuntu since before Dapper. Prior to that I used Gentoo, Slackware, and Debian. I have to say it is excellent work that is done in general making Linux available many people, but I caution that thinking about market share has not helped Microsoft or Apple in building an effective usable quality Operating System--it has helped them gain market share. Best Wishes, Karim -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
