Why not just do
sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/path/to/usb/drive bs=1M?

We are lucky, it could have been a broken init system. :D

Everything other than a rollback is error-prone and the process to recover from a broken downgrade is anything but human-friendly. ;)

dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M

There's always Linux Mint... :-)

Why set a password at all if you use a weak one?


You can log in as root, so they don't.

Why would you want to use a generic list/menu icon for the system indicator?

What's wrong with davmail?

Nothing too special, just a GIMPed Quetzal wallpaper:

Heh, I switched with Unity. Never liked panels hiding and I certainly wouldn't want to hide Unity's top panel, but the launcher bar doesn't offer any real information that I'm not already aware of,...

What if their user is broken? It's called recovery mode for a reason.


Same as above, or: what if they've accidentally removed the package 'sudo'?

The current state is intended, therefore by definition not a bug.

If you want real security, encrypt your system.

# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq

I'd just make sure they can't reboot. :P

Yes, swap should be as fast as possible, but certainly not at the cost of putting system files at a worse position on-disk. :-o If you constantly need swap, then you have not enough RAM.

A bug-fix-only cycle for Unity and Compiz (maybe focus on multi-monitor setups).

A unified Unity/Unity 2D settings module in the control center.

Remove the Dash's "Apps Available for...

It's a pine cone with feet. I'll stick to Prickly Porcupine.

I use 2-propanol (isopropyl alcohol). Cheap to get at any pharmacy (doesn't need to be the pure stuff which is slightly more expensive).

What point? The "XY sucks because I have a bug that makes it slow on my system" or the "I say GNOME 3 when I mean GNOME Shell"? >:P

Hehe, you never fail to mention that (but I too hope the drunk mode goes away in P). :D

I think it's important that they are configurable the same way. So you don't have to use ccsm/dconf-editor for one and gconf-editor for the other. Maybe a centralized single configuration module...

We need "Ubuntu Unfriendly" - a public list of OEMs that don't allow their users freedom. >:)
