Some quick thoughts on things Linux related
Posted By matt on October 27, 2007
On Gutsy:
- Compiz-Fusion in blingTACULAR
- They appear to have fixed my wireless issues
- Haven't tried suspend resume
- Openoffice 2.3 basically can't print (I have a 20 sheet spreadsheet. It prints one page. Not the first one, or the last one, just a random one in the middle)
So…
I can't upgrade my desktop to Gusty, because openoffice not working is a dealbreaker. Therefore, I'm waiting for the next edition, which is also going to be a long term support version. If the bling in Gutsy is any indication, I think it will have a lot of shiny features.
However, I am going to upgrade to it and say there. I'm tired of these bleeding edge stuff and want some stability. 2 year release cycles are fine.
On Vector Linux
I had heard good things about this.
Pro:
- It is fast. Very fast
- It is lightweight
Con:
- It lacks the polish which Ubuntu has
In the end, I poked it for a bit and will be staying with Ubuntu.
