On the eve of release into free-swimming Ubuntu 8. 10 «Intrepid Ibex» decided to conduct a poll among friends bloggers. The idea is not new. At one time I liked. post. dik'a about resource news2. ru, and although I am far from the topic, read with pleasure thinking ...
It was originally planned to publish every thought into a single message, but the number of add calls for separation. For people who are used to obtain information on the Internet portions of the normalized ( as the issuance of a search engine;-)), loses interest in the form of an impressive opus. Responses are numbered according to the issues. Happy reading.

a. Scheduled release: distribution of work and work seriously. LTS- releases - all excellent step. Debian-based: I like the APT, and so I started with Debian 3. a. Acceptable ratio of the stability / novelty of the software: Debian testing I have a buggy, so that God forbid, Ubuntu, although it is based on the unstable branch of Debian, is much more stable thereof.
2. The same thing and the Community as a whole - a stable and rich features done free software.
3. Debian testing ( at the time Etch), behaved maloadekvatno. In the hands of six got Ubuntu. 10, and I decided to try.

Now I use Gentoo, but about the Ubuntu I also have something to say.
3. My first acquaintance was with the news that a new Ubuntu distribution 5. 04 can be ordered free of charge by e-mail. Then it was the usual, nothing stands out distribution. After that I was not the case Ubuntu. But recently, I put the laptop MSI M670 Ubuntu 8. 04, and was pleasantly surprised: the distribution has grown and now allows no effort to quickly get a working environment. This is the only proven distribution in which the regime s2ram on my laptop works ' izkaropki '. Codecs are installed when you try to play a file, samba - when you try to.
mount a ' ball ' and even the flashplayer is installed using the distribution as required by firefox. All this creates the impression of ' completeness '. An excellent choice for a beginner who wants to.
get acquainted with Linux.
2. What I would like to receive from the following releases. Let the Ubuntu distribution will be that will make Linux an attractive solution for home and business desktops.

a. After several years of acquaintance with the Debian GNU / Linux has decided to install Ubuntu on my laptop, because it considered that to install Ubuntu on a laptop most suitable.
2. First, wait for the new kernel, which will support acpi noubukov for Toshiba with Phoenix Bios (' native ' BIOS from Toshiba itself is already supported by current kernel ). Secondly, I look forward to fix bugs in packages bulez-utils, obex-data-server. In the current release, bluetooth not working correctly.
Third, the further development of pulseaudio, in particular, a more stable work with flash player. The current situation is that Firefox sometimes falls. Or is the whole system is fully lochit.
I would like to GIMP 2. 6.
I, in general, then, do not have a lot:).
3. In the spring of 2008 established the Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon with DVD. In general, the distribution of my expectations were met. A sort of ' poppy ' version of Debian is. I liked the use. About a month ago, updated release before Hardy Heron, the network. Sam the update was surprisingly smoothly, but then got out a few small, nasty bugs, such as the incompatibility of the cache Tracker.

a. The last couple of years working on the desktop under Fedora, and always some small problems arose: the flash drive is not mounted, then there are unresolved dependencies during installation program is not in the repository, then the mp3 in amarok does not play ( earned only after the hand- assembled and . Update this economy has not been easy and, as a consequence, the software was not fresh. Despite the fact that we issue a product based on Fedora, decided that my next system will be Ubuntu: It is time to get acquainted with the ideology of Debian, and even see what it represents, this distribution. Prior to that, nor with Ubuntu, or Debian does not come across with.
3. When I bought Asus EEE PC 701G, we decided to put back Ubuntu, then 7. 10. Installation ( with a USB CD- drive) is successful, the configuration with the aid of graphical tools and editing files in / etc did not cause much difficulty. I liked the structure of / etc and thence hooks for all occasions, as well as the manual process of rebuilding a pair of vigorous modules, not to mention convenient packages, and ease of installation:) Then, a little tough to upgrade to 8. 04 via the Internet (the local repository directory structure has a curve, causing the updater could not change in the sources. list gutsy to hardy, as to the global mirror was a bad connection ), pumped Alternate CD and successfully upgraded. A month after that put the 8. 04 in the main home machine, and finally, a couple of weeks ago - on the working. Since then, the work of this distribution is mainly satisfied, although there are some unpleasant moments, to which only the hands do not get correct. For example, it was not possible to set up my graphics card Radeon X1650 Pro - hangs at startup and all:) Another annoying thing in the Russified output from df move out Russian letters, and mc is missing information about free space on disk.
2. The most difficult question, because the functionality of the current version of the distribution for the most part I was happy, and best known - the enemy of good. However, some non-original wishes, there are still. I want to have to try new gnome and kernel, do not leave hope for improvement in the network settings GUI tools, as well as a general improvement in productivity and reduction in the number of bugs and glitches. It would be also slightly improve the consistency of the interface ( a dialog ' turn off the computer ' is worth and how much of a debate it was! ). And still I dream to admire the results of the implementation of ideas to brainstorm. ubuntu. com.
