I tend to agree. I had big problems with X during installation. Live-CD only worked in "Safe Graphics Mode" (SGM), so I had to install from there and then again boot into SGM and edit the X11/xorg.conf file to use the Open Source ATI driver (Xpress 200M), then reboot. But that still didn't solve the problem. The window management was still wrong, no panels, no buttons, no nothing. So with ALT+F2 I called up gnonme-system-settings and looked at "display" options. It appeared that NO screen was defined, it was greyed out. So I clicked on it and set the resolution, rebooted and I finally had a desktop. I also cannot log out (only reboot), if I log out the screen just blinks for a while and then logs back in again. There are clearly problems with the X server. Jaunty is a pile of shit for me so far. And there seems to be very few new updates coming????? Has Canonical gone bankrupt? Are they still working? Where are they? Who are they? What is Ubuntu?
