How can I ditch the Unity interface?

[john1066]

My laptop (Acer Aspire 6930G) runs 10.10 like a dream. On my netbook (Asus 1001 pX) 10.10 sucks. And it uses the Unity interface which I suspect as being the problem. Apart from that I don't like it (the unity interface) - so I would love to know how to get rid of it.

Thanks,
John

from synaptic, search for "unity" packages installed, then remove/purge them

and install an other choice like lubuntu-desktop

You can disable maximus and netbook launcher in the startup applications applet.

I would purge away Unity asap and go for gnome 3

just purge netbook launcher and maximus and use uubuntu desktop.. works like magic (not so sure with the unity thing though)
