I love 9.10 (so far)!

Hello everyone. I finally managed to download the beta of Ubuntu 9.10 and love it so far! One definite Windows killer is the intro screen! I was not expecting that at all. Definitely can't wait for the official release! Great job!!

Aliencure,

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am currently running Karmic Beta, and it is really great. If you remember would you mind coming back and sharing your thoughts on how you feel after the final release! Thanks.

I did find one bug so far. Ejecting discs from my DVD drive. I have to right click on the disc icon on the desktop and select unmount before ejecting the disc.

disk eject sometimes plays up for me too

i have had it that bad i had to

sudo eject cdrom

before it worked

other then that and the wierd bug i have with not seeing shared lan printers, its all good

That is pretty odd, I have an audio cdrom and it auto mounted for me. When I click on the desktop icon for the Audio cd and hit eject it does. Are you running Karmic Beta? I am using a Dell E6500 and haven't noticed the same behaviour. Have you reported the bug you're experiencing? There might be others that are experiencing the same issues, you might only need to find and open bug and help by confirming it.

Chris,
yeah mate, running beta 1 have been since its release

its pretty wierd behaviour

every other version of ubuntu i have used since 7.04 i have not had these issues

fingers crossed it is cured for the final

[batnas]

It's not

But hopefully there will soon be a fix

Good so far. Desktop resolution issues after install on one machine. I managed to fix after a couple of hours of searching on the 'net and fumbling through a few dead-ends. And problems getting a wireless card working properly on another, finally resolved by doing the install again, on a wired ethernet connection. Think I'm gonna stick with Windows and 8.04LTS on my other hardware for now, at least they're both solid in comparison to this release.

I've noticed this as well, it will eject the disc, but I have to right-click and unmount if I want to access another disc that has then been inserted. Only noticed it today when busy with it.
