lul wut?????


Anyways, I finally got round to trying 10.10 out on my laptop. I am yet to find a bug or have a problem with it. The installation was much smoother, especially offering to install codecs and updates as it installed.

Even the Hardware drivers tool worked without an issue and activated the correct nvidia driver without any complaints or problems.

All in all I would say a very good release.


I personally prefer a more ground up distro so use Arch Linux on my main machines. However I must admit that Ubuntu are doing to good job or making a user friendly mainstream distro.
