I have had problems for weeks so I deleted it. You should look into repos for the individual software that you need getdeb for. IIRC I read that getdeb and medibuntu are finished. No more updates.

Wow! How many posters have to complain about this bar before somebody fixes it? How hard can that be? Maybe Canonical should run a crowdfunding compaign to hire a programmer to fix it. I see a record...
The new Canonical OS is designed for content consumption. That's my opinion. You have the option of ignoring me. If you present an argument I have the option of responding. If you present a poor...
No I don't. I think it's quite clear that it isn't. I have separate x-screens on Mate 13 for example, I can maximize many windows, use workspaces, see all the buttons, etc,. all right out of the box....
TY. I have discovered that. It relly looks challenging. I might install a second copy of Mate just in case where I can learn how to use FVWM. Years of PEBCAK have made me cautious in my old age. LOL
I've used a Mac exactly twice. The first time it was text driven. No mouse, big plastic discs. The second time was a couple years ago in a coffee shop here where I live and play. It was the latest...
Sorry guys but all I see here is someone who completely ignored or did not read what i posted.
I really have no idea why it's so important for some to attack anyone who doesn't like the current...
TY I'll check it out. I have formatted about 40 gb to install and check out other OSs.
I think after reading the critique of MS 8 by the usablity expert my opinion has changed. I would argue that Ubuntu has beeen redesigned for content consumption not primarily for touch screens. I...
Wow! I have never made this argument nor am I trying to convert users from one distro to another.
My original post in this thread was pointing out that the use of 'hater' to characterize people...

LOL Well I'm leaving now. Whenever I look for articles on Linux I keep seeing stuff about how great Linux Mint Cinnamon is. I've been dling it and putting it onto a USB while chatting here and now...
I started with Amiga so I am used to that. Switching to MS ME was a nightmare.
If I designed a desktop OS it wouldn't have a menu/start button in the corner. It would be dead center in the middle...
I had the attitude that I would adapt just as I have adapted to various MS and Linux OSs, but the changes to Ubuntu seem to make it unsuitable for a desktop IMHO and experience. I found this article...
So you're saying that 'only those who have no sense of adventure don't use Ubuntu'? LOL
Friend, I have lived and worked in two different countries as well as my own these past 13 years. I think my...
I'm not a programmer. I'm a user. I have no idea what a 'dock' is but saying Unity is 'just a' dock or whatever is just a minimization of my criticism.
I use Mint Mate. When I want to go online I...
I've been a user since I tried 10.04. More precisely I've been a user since I installed MS Vista and lost the functionality of my brand new printer, expensive brand new camera, all my fairly...
Referring to the original post.
I think it's important for people or companies to honestly explain their motivations when they come under the fire that Ubuntu has because of Unity and now Mir.

I've seen a couple newspaper reports that MS is acknowledging the problems with putting out a phone, pad touch screen focussed OS when so many require a PC based OS. They are putting out something...
Thanks for that. I've copied and pasted it into my Ubuntu Usefall Install Info file. Alongside purging Pulse and numerous stuff from the Video thread here. But what I really need is seperate X...
I appreciate your 2 cents. I appreciate any respectful reply. I am using Mate 13. But I like using the latest and greatest. Mate 14 doesn't have seperate X screens either unfortunately, But Nvidia...
echo 2. I switched to Ubuntu as soon as I became aware that it could be installed without possessing an advanced Computer Science degree. I was tired of all the work needed to secure my system with...
'Drawers' is a good idea except I have to figure out what each of pre-installed programs is. But it's doable. Just because something is new doesn't mean it's better. 8-tracks were new once. So were...
There were no panels. Just my desktop wallpaper. Nothing else. I may not have put in the dot. I just finished re-installing and configuring things. I'll try this and reboot. Thanx.
I use Mint Mate. I keep checking back with Ubuntu to see if they have fixed their problems yet so I can use it again. Apparently I'm wasting my time.
