[LINUX_Newbies] ubuntu...

 

Ubuntu 10.04 has been a very stable release for me and I am disappointed in Canonical for releasing their new Unity desktop prior to it being really stable...I await their April release this year, hoping they have stabilized their changes. I have used Ubuntu since 2006 and only avoided using it during 2011 and this part of 2012. But 10.04 is still very good.

Note that the 12.04 release (which some of my Linux students are trying out) uses GRUB 2 and that sometimes this GRUB 2 has a problem identifying other Linux distros present if those use GRUB legacy version.
