Comment on Ubuntu Unity — Worst GUI Evar? by epthnation

I like all these comments, even as I feel the frustrations behind them. I have to say that I still cannot believe how bad Unity and Gnome 3 are. For anyone who cares about Linux at all, this is a big deal. It’s the bottleneck right now. It might not be fixable.

Comment on Ubuntu Unity — Worst GUI Evar? by wpoet

Yes, this new Unity is a huge step BACK. I experienced the very same problems.

In addition, after installation of 11.10 using the update feature my desktop and apps looked like a mixture of KDE and Gnome, totally awful. I used the CCSM and after a few configurations my desktop was completely wracked. It did not show me the launcher, the small area on the right top where the network, shutdown, etc., icons resided did not show up. I could not switch to a different user to try to fix things from there. I was able to get back a desktop with about 2 hours work.

As epthnation said, using the computer is now 5 times slower and more effort. My solution for now, until the gnome 2 backport, or whatever it is called, will bring back a workable desktop, is to just have a terminal window open at any time. A keyboard short cut brings will bring it to focus from everywhere, and I start my applications from there. Back to the old days of alias-ing and two-letter abbreviations of the applications. WOW that is progress.

I teach a computer science class at the college. I was using a course in “operating systems” to show my students advantages of Linux. Desktop-wise they are gone at the moment.

Dude,

I installed Ubuntu last night, and boy am I disappointed. I’ve been logged into Ubuntu for maybe a total of 20 minutes, and completely broken it twice already. The first time I was trying to get the cube thing going that I saw on youtube, and the GUI completely disappeared, just bammo, GONE!

So after doing a complete repair which didn’t change anything, and logging over to windows for a bit to check online, I find out how to get any type of box open to set everything back to default. Not more than 60 seconds after setting everything back to default, and finally being able to do something again, I drag a window to the right, and half way through the action, BAMMO, GUI is gone again! WTF is going on?

I was really looking forward to a Windows alternative, but I must say, Microsoft got a lot of things right with Windows 7, and so far, the only thing Ubuntu seems capable of doing is disappearing.

Amen! Could we possibly hope that Linux Mint has enough sense and moxie to stay with Gnome 2?

Right. Maybe a little less aware of the fact that she is Michael Cera. Or, in this case, Ellen Page.

I guess I liked it a little bit more than you, but I have a bias because I am a big derby girl fan. But, I pretty much agree with just about everything you said, especially the part about Page being the female Cera, though a bit less full of herself.

Comment on John Sholden is a Bad Tipper by Scott Weber

I must confess, that none of these posts surprise me. My daughter who was 17 at the time went before this worthless Judge for a first time truancy offence. She has good grades and only has to take 2 classes her final trimester to graduate. She had already been accepted to SFA. His penalty, $275 fine and 365 day suspension of her drivers license. I requested to speak to the Judge after he was through with court that day and he refused to see me. So I wrote a letter to Judge Clay Jenkins, who is basically Sholden’s boss, letting him know of the unfairness I found in his ruling. Jenkins in turn forwards the letter to Sholden, and when I appear before Judge Sholden again with my daughter to ask for an extension on her fine, I ask him politely, after my daughter shows him letters from her teachers and her acceptance letter to SFA, if he would consider unsuspending her license. He looked me dead in the eye and told me, I read your letter and I am not willing to do anything, and I won’t do anything. Then rudely told me to get out of his court room without allowing me to say another word.
This man has no business dealing with juveniles, much less anyone else. He definitely has a God complex. Another point worth mentioning, he is much harder on girls than boys for some reason. While we were sitting in his court room I noticed the penalties were much harsher on girls. The boy that took that went before him right after my daughter received only a $1 fine and court costs and they were almost identical in their situations. This man is pure evil.
