(I'll been using UNIX-like systems since my boss in the early-mid 80s got a blue book from Bell Labs with a description of it, and decided that it would be fun to implement a version of it on our Tandem Non-Stop ][ .) But some stuff, especially when it's advertised as working but plummets me into a game of Mother-May-I, drives me a bit nuts. > I did a bit of research for you Joseph.. and it looks like it IS going to > be a bit before bugs are fixed for your particular system.

I'd be leery of switching, though, since I have just enough stuff working under Ubuntu the way that I want it to that I'd be loth to put it all back together under another distro. > > try that out for starters. if all else fails, i have been TOLD...by reading > online that if you do a normal install of the LTS 10.04 and do a > dist-upgrade... then it seems to work ok with the 1001.

At least i think I did: I was running 10.04, and the Update Manager said: "There's a new version. Wanna try it?" I said "Hell, yeah!" and dove in. Unfortunately, I'm only finding out what doesn't work well as I'm already plunging down the rabbit hole. > > Best of Luck mate. and ill keep my eyes open for anything new for ya.. > Thanks. > Regards, > > Patrick > > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: > https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio<https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-us-ohio> > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : > https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio<https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-us-ohio> > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > -- Joseph Zitt ::http://www.josephzitt.com
