Me and my big mouth!
May 11th
In my last post I wrote a small review about Ubuntu 9.04, the latest release from Canonical. I wrote in that post so many good things about the new version and I even believed it myself, until I actually move with my work laptop from 8.04 to 9.04. As a warning to everyone, do not do what I did. Stick with 8.04 or 8.10, because 9.04 its very unstable, has a lots of bugs and can be very very unstable.
A quick look at Ubuntu 9.04
May 4th
About a week ago or so, Ubuntu development team have released their latest version of Ubuntu, 9.04. With this new release, also came a lot of improvements, bug fixed, new packages, new kernel, new notification style, boot performance improvements and so on, but one thing that I hate and hated in Ubuntu, was the lack of style or design. The guys from the Ubuntu development team didn’t really do anything when it comes to the look of this new release. Basically, they removed a couple of Gnome themes, which kind of bugs me too much (removed Glossy theme), also they modified a bit the usplash and also added the well awaited notification style. Besides this, this new release doesn’t bring any new theme or style to the distro.
