Ubuntu 8.10 impressions.

Nov 12, 2008 @ 11:58 am by Administrator

I’m by no means a power linux user anymore, I just don’t use it that much but I thought I’d give 8.10 a spin for giggles in my vm.

Good thing I did it in a vm, the upgrade process didn’t go smoothly at all. I ended up having to force the update manager to install some packages so it could get the rest or something crazy.

My webcam still doesn’t work. But this might be because of how the vm handles USB instead of just linux being stupid.

Other than that, I really don’t see a point in upgrading to 8.10. There’s probably a whole lot under the hood I didn’t notice, but 8.04 seems to be a fine and stable platform.
