I think that I have reached the conclusion, at this point in time at least, is that I will change over to Kubuntu
Praise the Lord! There is hope. I feel a bit ashamed because i like *ubuntu, but sometimes you have think of yourself first. Please go to Kubuntu Basil. This would be the first positive thing you would bring to this community! :)
Henne, I've been migrating my systems over to Ubuntu for a bit now. Mostly, like Basil, I wish to just use the software rather than deal with the quirks that I keep running into. Ubuntu's overall community seems to be headed or gone in the places that I wish to go. I'm not slagging SuSE, I'm just feeling much more consumerish, than geekish.
I'm happy for you. Please use whatever FOSS distribution fits you best. If that's Ubuntu then its Ubuntu! I work together with others on openSUSE so it helps many people to fulfill their computing needs and if you're not one of them thats fine. The only thing I'm interested in is bringing this distribution and FOSS forward (so you better not wander off to some proprietary OS or I'll come and get you! ;) For me and a lot of other figures in this movement this never has been and never will be about Ubuntu vs. openSUSE, KDE vs. GNOME or Emacs vs. Vim. We are way beyond that and i challenge all of you to get to this point too. Distro- or for that matter any other FOSS flamewars are just so booooooring. This is about getting the most out of this for YOU as individuals so the answer can just be some individual truth, like Ubuntu is what Mike is seeking for, and not something universal.
