UNR 10.10 Maverick Meerkat - Don't touch this!

Hello,

Oh-oh. I liked Maverick on the desktop, but the netbook edition is a different story altogether. Hence, a very negative review of Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.10 Maverick Meerkat, including basic overview, new theme and style and lots and lots of problems.

Cheersomeness,

Tried it on 4 machines...Mutter crashing in Live CD, Mutter crashing installed to HD....whats the mutter with Mutter

 

wondering how good netbooks are on eyes i mean 10.1 can you really do some real typing office stuff surfing on them just wondering

although unity look cute hope see stable release soon

 

I didn't even bother to install UNR 10.10 after experiencing all the "muttering" on the LiveCD.

If you are brave enough you can try Unity-Compiz at it's PPA.

 

Screenshots of the new Unity-Compiz are posted here

Hopefully it will be a better experience than Unity-Mutter

 

I've been using UNR 10.10 for a while now, and it's got it's quirks but overall I like it. I've not had a crash for a long time, maybe that was fixed in recent updates.

Get to the files isn't that difficult, but could have been made more easier.

 

Reminds me of the S. African Castle Lite beer ad 'Can't touch this'..

Ocky,
I think that's what he was alluding to with his "Don't touch this" phrase. Yes, it appears Mrk has a sense of humor somewheres buried deep down in his tiny soul. A bit of the showman/carnival barker, as well. .

Later...
