I have a problem that's driving me insane. I just installed 11.10, but it simply looks like crap. The login screen is a flat pink, and the UI just looks outdated - the best way to describe it is Windows 2000. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks
Compiz seams like a hit or miss nowadays. Back under ubuntu8.04 it ran flawlessly but now i don't even dare to install in fear in fucks up the whole system(it done it multiple times). Well, i don't need those fancy effects anyway *sigh*
@Ateeq72 Take your time with changing compiz settings, my advice would be click.wait. see if it worked and then carry on....IMO if you go all click happy youll get a crash/not work. This all depends on your machine though, yea!
To get compiz settings manager just use the software centre or open a terminal ctrl-alt-t and run:
@quantum290 USB 2 is 30mbits per second, USB 3 is 50mbits per second. I use OCZ Rally2 USB 2.0 Flash Drive 30mbits per second just about good enough a little lag when running ubuntu from it.
I have one (Kingston DTU 16gb) which has 88mbytes (sequential read) and 62mbytes (sequential write) per second, that is 700 and 500 mbits/s.
Although it's much slower with small files (4kb: 5.3 and 8.3 MB/s) it is still a huge difference comparing to a usb2 stick i tested (0.1 MB/s write, with small files).
That's why i expect a great improvement in performances of live usb3 persistent ubuntu, if bootable usb3 is possible at all
I HATE 11.10. Im back on 10.10... My comp ain't FAST but it isn't exactly slow, though it does run on 32 bit. Can't wait until taxes come back next year to upgrade to a new comp. This version slows me down in an annoying way. Not too BAD, just aggravating. Oh, can't I switch where to close the screen? (left or right side)? Shit MSI mb, 3gb RAM, Athlon II 240x2, 2.81GHz processors, Nvidia geforce 6150se nForce 430.
Kubuntu 11.10 is much much better stopped using Ubuntu after v10.10 of Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.10 Rocked, but the newer version made some unnecessary changes such as having icons on the left of the screen among many.
Funny thing: I use gnome (Unity off) and I can't make the compiz work (I have it installed, I turn on the features in configuration but they don't work)
Does that mean that in order to use Compiz I now have to get used to the inferior (it's inferior right now, though there is potential in it) Unity UI?
@ota97 MacOS is made by Apple Inc. Windows 7 is made by Microsoft. Linux is made by many programmers not affiliated in a company. Windows 8 is not out yet.
I just dual-booted Windows 7 and Ubuntu and though Ubuntu is complicated, it's a lot faster than my Windows 7. Working on Triple Booting Windows 7, Ubuntu and OS X Snow Leopard. Anyone had any luck on triple booting?
Dumping 11k worth of Microsoft stock.... installed Ubuntu 11.10 last week.... Unbelievable!!!! This OS really surpasses Windows 7 for ease of use, stability, creativity and the WOW factor! Powerful stuff man!!! Switching over completely to open source...the way of the future!!!!
Ubuntu is getting more detached. The out of the box experience it dreadful now. 2 years ago it had most of the software I needed. Now they have removed the majority of my favorites. And the interface is not useable if you work with files and folders a lot.
i want to ask a question.... in this video you have mention that you are using pci e graphic card, do you download the nvidia driver? or you just use what they call xserver nvidia?
@novelldesktop thanks.... one more thing i just installed this version of ubuntu yesterday. the problem is my wifi working fine yesterday. and this morning i can't connect to wifi, it's keep connecting and fail. hmm a ubuntu with no internet for me
lol same CPU as mine Q6600. Had it since late 2008 and it's still a great chip. the OS is amazing its just a shame I have to use so much windows only software :/
"Linus Torvalds called GNOME 3 an 'unholy mess' and said that the user experience is unacceptable, adding that because of GNOME 3, he has ditched GNOME for Xfce. He said that Xfce is a step down from GNOME 2 — but a huge step up from GNOME 3."
Why the fuck don't i have the shut down icon on the top right of my screen? I have version 11.10, and the only way i get it to appear is if i switch user to "guest" and even when i chose shutdown after i go to guest it does nothing but go back to the switch user screen and request the password which it of course it doesn't need because i am "now" a guest so once i click on Login after i have tried to shutdown, it does exactly that!, then i am back square one.
Yep, that's 1 of the many reasons I installed the Gnome Shell. Unity is great if you feel like learning a lot of new things, new places to find the old things you are used to, don't mind missing things (LoL), etc. But I want something that is Not flashy, etc... I want something that just works well and that's Gnome 2D for me.
Today i upgraded to 11.10 and had a strange problem when enabling Opacify on Compiz Accessibility features. Suddenly i could not use the "O" and "o" keys! No matter what i did, it was impossible to use them. Only with caps locked i could write O or by using shift key... I even had problems logging in because of that. In the end i realized it was because of the Opacify feature on Compiz. Phew! only after disabling the Opacify i got back the use of my keys...
One - what about system requirements? I have a nine years old PC and i'm afraid the performance would be not good. Well, maybe that's stupid question, but i just want to know.
Two - unity is strange... unfamiliar. It's really better than normal gnome?
And three - should I change Lynx to Ocelot? Or better to replace xubuntu? Or maybe run it in VirtualBox (or something else)?
@EstelNoquelle make sure your the old pc has 1GB of ram DDR will do, Pentium 4 3.0 GHZ will run Ubuntu 11.10 make sure the graphics is supported. look at Ubuntu weekly news on Google. Type UWN on Google .
I don't know if it's my laptop (dell inspiron 15r), me running wubi, or if Ubuntu 11.10 hates me...but I can't make any changes to compiz. Any suggestions?
@livinglegend1187 I am using windows7 right now, and I am itching to put Ubuntu once more, because it is slow and drives me insane. You should realise it appears to be slow because 1)there is a heavy screen capture program running 2)this is not the final build of the operating system.

@livinglegend1187 your out of your mind... Windowz does not even compare in terms of speed....I have both, and Windows is installed in a way better and newer PC.

@novelldesktop really is uselessi use fluxbox or install gnome-panel am still on ubuntu 10.10 and will be for a while but might switch to mint or debiam
@novelldesktop I hated the death out of 11.04 because all the problems but there is no way I can possibly hate this one. Guess what is being installed? 11.10!!!
@TWILisawesome firefox is now on a rapid release development cycle, meaning a new version every few months. You won't really see any drastic changes between versions from now on, but it is changing.
Personally, I'm a power user (I use keyboard to navigate and usually don't touch the mouse) and I find that Unity slows down my productivity. However, The eyecandy in Unity is quite appealing, especially the new dash. I'm an OpenBox user on ArchLinux, so I am able to navigate quickly.
Love the vids, keep up the good work, eat your vegetables, etc.
There are lot thing that will gone wrong in the latest release of Ubutu. I mean the Ubuntu button in the left corner on the panel is now replaced with icon on dash, the new power cog (God damn what was wrong with the old beautiful button) and the stupid zooming and cube effects (they don't even hide the dash and the panel wtf) which looks in the same way even now.

Of course it depends on the usb drive, i'm interested in concrete performances of concrete drives.
I hope someone who runs live usb3 can compare the speed to a usb2 drive.
After all the difference is supposed to be noticeable no matter of the drive model.

I guess I am one of the few people who rolled over to Unity and after a bit of growing pains accepted it as my new desktop environment. I for one cannot wait for these improvements I have 11.10 marked on my calendar. :)

Ubuntu 11.10 looks beautiful.
I can't wait to make a review and use it.
Excellent review! You're the only Linux Users who hasn't made any negative comment about the latest changes for Ubuntu.
Love the accent, by the way!

@novelldesktop I hated the death out of 11.04 because all the problems but there is no way I can possibly hate this one. Guess what is being installed? 11.10!!!

@TWILisawesome firefox is now on a rapid release development cycle, meaning a new version every few months. You won't really see any drastic changes between versions from now on, but it is changing.

Personally, I'm a power user (I use keyboard to navigate and usually don't touch the mouse) and I find that Unity slows down my productivity. However, The eyecandy in Unity is quite appealing, especially the new dash. I'm an OpenBox user on ArchLinux, so I am able to navigate quickly.
Love the vids, keep up the good work, eat your vegetables, etc.

There are lot thing that will gone wrong in the latest release of Ubutu. I mean the Ubuntu button in the left corner on the panel is now replaced with icon on dash, the new power cog (God damn what was wrong with the old beautiful button) and the stupid zooming and cube effects (they don't even hide the dash and the panel wtf) which looks in the same way even now.

@fakaras99 Yeah I don't understand why they would put the Ubuntu button on the dash and still leave that giant taskbar on top.

@AlphaFlockFunnyBiss touch screens needs a big button
novelldesktop 6 months ago
@novelldesktop But honestly who would use this for touchscreens? You need a much better UI.

@AlphaFlockFunnyBiss ON a 10in touch screen would be nice, 10 hr battery life, ARM processor. some day maybe.
novelldesktop 5 months ago
@novelldesktop Someday but the UI still has to improve otherwise it would just be like having Windows 7 on a tablet. That didn't turn out so well.
