[LUG] I've had it with Ubuntu
Yesterday my machine updated a few packages and now it wont even run
unity any-more.
I have three machines with 12.04 on and they are all borked one way or
another - mostly OpenGL is totally screwed (they're all Nvidia).
I normally use XFCE destop but occasionally drop into Unity to try and
sort out printing and fileshareing which has also gone completely tits
up as the 'upgrade' overwrote configs in a 'secure' way and then hid the
mechanism for fixing it in case it scares the user.
I have no idea what Unity was meant to achieve for someone who actually
uses a computer to compute and not just as an interface to the net but
its so badly screwed I'm going to completely get rid of it and move to
xubuntu unless anyone else is having similar problems with that.
