Windows 7 is crashy as hell. I get a Windows 7 crash about once a day, and yes that’s will all current patches installed. Only reason I am using it at all is to to a particular application that requires it.

I don’t remember ever seeing an Ubuntu crash. My only current Ubuntu gripes are:

1) poor wireless support

2) horrible gui interface for managing wireless settings and connections.

Ok while i have to admit that windows 7 is nice and all id actually like to see this version of Linux kick its ass! Because i run a new i7 core computer in windows 7 and whats sad to say is its not got any issues at all!! But when i try to use 9.10 of Ubuntu i have horrible problems no support for my wifi, no support for my usb, no support for almost half my cpus. This is a major issue and i later found out its because the hardware i have is too new? how is that possible shouldnt linux be looking into newer, faster hardware and how to keep the stability of these new systems? If they dont who will? Do you really want to trust a nice new computer to a second rate OS like windows? I think not. It’d also be nice to still be able to use aircrack-ng with my computers built in realtek wifi card but i guess that will have to be another problem for another forum.

ubuntu 10.4 is bugshit, it cant compete with windows 7, and dont come with bullshit saying that its more insecure, get the facts straight and look at the security methods implemented in windows 7, its not like win xp anymore

i am running linux mint 8 (based on ubuntu 9.10) and i have been doing internet connection sharing for quite a while. i have installed the bridging protocol and just have the interface connected to my network set as ‘shared to other computers’. it allows many windows and linux machines to connect. i have no idea why you have so many problems, but it worked great for me.

I want Stability, Speed, better Hardware support, easy file sharing, better usability (for example making Nautilus more usable like drag drop, edit on BOTH panes, more right click actions, etc.) Those are useful features.

What is the good of seeing the windows below the current window by transparency? This is an annoying feature that should be considered last.

People! You have to look for facts! apt will be under the hood when you use the software center, its the same with synaptics!. And you don’t have to miss synaptics neither. It will probably be on the repos, just not installed by default. Just install it using apt or the software center. It probably won’t be uninstalled if you upgrade from 9.10.

If you want ICS on linux, use firestarter, it is a firewall app that allows you to share your internet connection. It works like a charm I used to use it with a USB DSL modem. On XP it would disconnect every hour or two, on linux the USB DSL connection stayed on forever and with firestarter I was able to share my connection and started using the computer as a server.

The reason it’s 10.04 is that it comes out in April (04) of 2010 (10). All their releases are that way. 10.04 means April 2010, 10.10 will be October 2010, etc. It’s not the typical “dot-oh-four” numbering you’re thinking. It’s based on the release date. I find it handy, actually.

Future of linux is one word: AUTOPACKAGE.

Main distributions should integrate this system with package managers.

[...] What will Ubuntu 10.04 bring to the table? I hope you are as excited about 10.04 as I am. I believe this could be the Ubuntu release that the public would have a hard time turning down as its desktop OS. Not only will it have a very solid foundation, the overlaying structure will be much more modern looking. [...]
