Wait. things that make me unhappy with Ubuntu: (9.04)<br>
<br>
My DVD drive stopped reading disks, any DVD/CD, anything at all.<br>
<br>
After 3 days of running it can not make a connection to the outisde world. I have to reboot to get it to work. Other computers runing Ubuntu have the same problem, 3 days after they were booted, but ones running other operating systems don't.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Gnome GUI only works with a few X servers, OSX's not being one of them. There used to be a hack to get it to work, but with the OSX 10.5.7 upgrade that no longer works. KDE, etc work fine.<br>
<br>
While it's nice to be GPL software only, and I can agree with not playing encrypted DVDs, OSX 10.5 won't work with netatalk unless the BSD licensed encryption routines are included in the build. So why include Netatalk at all? The same with SENDMAIL.<br>
