What do you like about 11.04?

[josephmills]

I was just wondering what you like or don't like about natty 11.04 thanks

[BrokenKingpin]

Xfce 4.8 is in the repos.

[wojox]

I never liked docks before. Now I do. Also the way the windows integrate into the panel.

[sikander3786]

Unity itself :-D

Something new to learn and tease my brain :-)

Windows don't minimize when I click the icon in dock :-( Tease...

[josephmills]

very cool! I am just thinking about doing the upgrade but would like to here more thanks for you time here is what I am working with

what do you think ?

[arzali]

What I like:
Fullscreen flash performance is much much better than on 10.10
the Launcher and integrated title bar into the panel.

What i don't like:
No netspeed monitor for the unity panel
some compiz actions don't work.

All in all its a nice release but still needs some work

[josephmills]

I really like cairo dock to have tux walk around my dock. Any one tried it yet?

[murderslastcrow]

Being able to scrub through all of the indicators and menu items on the panel without unclicking and reclicking. Oh yeah, and everything else.

[Version Dependency]

I love the idea of lenses...and the fact that companies can create custom lenses for Unity. I have the Gwibber lens and the Askubuntu lens installed. Very nice stuff. I think we will see many more large websites creating custom lenses.

[cgroza]

So far, I love it all.

[cosine352]

I have black screen after upgrade from 10.10. I am missing out all the fun.](*,)](*,)

[MooPi]

So far I'm drawing a blank screen. Can't seem to get it to load on a good system. Granted it is the lowest spec machine I own , it should still work. Integrated Nvidia graphics maybe the issue ? Was hoping to test it out but the alternate install wouldn't work either.

[kaldor]

Quite fond of Unity, but it needs a lot of work. It feels buggy and incomplete, but it's definitely a great DE.

[cosine352]

ubuntu is becoming a crap. Now the focus is on eye candy rather than stability. disappointed.

[Frogs Hair]

11.04 is very fast on my hardware and I am pleasantly surprised by Unity now that I am getting used to it .

I hated the idea of unity when I first heard it was to be used and I actually referred to it as the Purbal Place desktop .

Finding a theme I like helps , but that was trial and error due to the fact that some GTK themes work and others don't.

[TeoBigusGeekus]

Unity will eventually mature and become a great DE, thanks to all us beta testers.

Canonical on the other hand should try to fix Ubuntu's large number of bugs before concentrating on making it look like a Fisher Price toy for the sake of newcomers' comfort.

[SoFl W]

+1 But I am not sure it is Ubuntu, but rather Gnome?

The problem is the more eye candy it becomes I think it will drive away new comers. After looking at the latest, I no longer feel confident to tell people about Ubuntu or Linux.

[disabledaccount]

Ubuntu as a distribution i great - I don't have to waste the time to get things working - everything (almost) works OOTB. Besides, every new version is generally faster and do not need HW upgrades - unlike "other" desktop system(s) :)

I don't like unity - I know, I know - recursive discussions is full of topics about this.
But I've just realised that there can be reason for crating this new GUI (at first I just though that someone made terrible mistake). I think that Canonical plans to attack mobile market and Unity has to be heavily tested first. Secondary, it's easier to mantain one GUI for desktops and mobiles...

[Perosteck]

Can't see much eye candy. The launcher bar is more functional than eye candy.

[trollger]

Firefox 4
Libreoffice

and GNOME 3

[m_duck]

What a refreshing thread - some positive remarks about Unity! Unfortunately I don't have the time to test it at the moment but I will be interested to try it come summer.

[cap10Ibraim]

Windows don't minimize when I click the icon in dock :-( Tease...
did you report this missing feature , i just realized that it's missing :P

[cap10Ibraim]

I was just wondering what you like or don't like about natty 11.04 thanks

I like the fact that I can run most any DE I wish on it.
