The "classic" gnome desktop is still available. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTtn4PPT1e8
Problem solved. As someone mentioned, linux mint is also a very good option. Was Unity actually a shock to anyone? Its not like ubuntu tried to hide this.

After being an Ubuntu fanboy for a good long while, i'm done. This new Unity launcher bar is buggy at best, disables multiple desktops by default, gets rid of the FREAKING APPLICATION MENU, and removes an applications menus (some are hidden in the top bar and can be revealed with a mouseover, gparted had none, nada, zip. I had to either Ctrl-Alt F1 and kill it from there, or use the god-awful unity crap, which only became visible again after switching desktops, and right-click and Quit from there. I haven't decided on CentOS, Gentoo, rPath, Arch, or LFS. I would do LFS again, but I still haven't found a good indie package management tool. > > Sent from my iPhone > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Archive http://marc.info/?l=jaxlug-list&r=1&w=2 > RSS Feed http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.xml > Unsubscribe [email protected] >
