My happiness is with Ubuntu again!

[silex89]

I was using ArchLinux for a while now, I was very happy with it using GNOME 3, but after compiling some tricky package the system had a Kernel Panic and I couldn't log in again (nobody knew a thing about it). Frustrated and angry I reinstalled Ubuntu (with absolutely no expectations of a better performance), and after the batch of updates (that I ran in the installation) everything went better than ever. Before the switch I made to Arch I was running a "clean" installation of Natty, but the updates they've put out recently clearly resolved the issues I always had to struggle with, I'm happy to say.

I'm running Unity and after a week or so I'm loving it, I got adapted to the shortcuts, everything is fast and more stable and friendly than GNOME (to me.. Is just my point of view and shouldn't be taken as something else :D) and the traumatic experience I had during the time I was away from Ubuntu was very useful to notice that my "home distro" is this one and not other.



Cheers and regards!
Is good to be back :)

PS. My intentions with this thread are not to bash Arch or any other distro, it's just my personal experience with the OSs, of course, I keep an open mind (and source of course ;)) to use any distro that comes out :D. BTW I compiled the package I was trying to run in Arch and it went great, no problems! :D

I kind of feel the same way. I've tried every distro out there, but ubuntu seems like the "mother". I'm not saying other distros aren't good. I'm loving fedora right now. You just have to find the best distro that's best for you.

There are no bad distros, it's just we are into different things. What sucks for you might be my heaven...... ;)
