This seems to be turning into the same discussion as in the comments for this (poor and misleading, in my opinion) article in the register: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/11/03/karmic_koala_frustration/ The discussion can be summarised as follows: comment j: Karmic is rubbish, it didn't work on my laptop/desktop/server/netbook/..... comment j + 1: Karmic is brilliant it worked perfectly on my laptop/... . . . comment (j + k) % n: Linux is useless anyway, you should be using Windows/FreeBSD/.... It's not really very productive, is it? My personal experience is that Linux installs/upgrades are getting easier as time goes by (and Ubuntu was a major step forward in this respect, for me). There are sometimes hiccups, but that's life in the free software world. Anyone else think there's been some over-reaction on the Karmic issue? cheers, Jerome -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can find the EdLUG mailing list FAQ list at: http://www.edlug.org.uk/list_faq.html
