Sounds like you're primarily a Windows user.
All your whining and grievances related to your inability to configure
your system through graphical configuration interfaces and tools.
Kind of select this menu click that button attitude.
I can give a good advise: 
Get yourself a good Linux book and study the system guts.
Practically all Linux user are testers and debuggers of their systems.
It makes Linux more better and superior with every new release.
