New kernel build release for Debian/Ubuntu: 2.6.30-flyleaf
1Well, as the before release this would be the same think, just it has some updates and also the base its a newer version of kernel. The base is 2.6.30-rc8, with git6 patch, Acer fan module patch, coretemp patch for the new Intel Atom (of course this new build has full Acer Aspire One support). Also I have re-included the webcam modules, as in the previous release I totally forgot about them.
openSUSE officially sucks!
0Yes I’ve said it! It sucks and it sucks more then Windows does. I have 3 laptops, 2 at home and one at work, using on most of them Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 or 8.10 and of course Windows XP. Now Ubuntu works quite fine, except some minor issues, like sound problems in Skype or driver problems for one of my Wifi adapter. One of this laptop is an Acer Extensa 5220, which is a quite nice laptop, but it has some issues with the wifi, its an Atheros wifi adapter and in Ubuntu there are issue with it. I added a PCMCIA wifi adapter from Broadcom and with b43-fwcutter it works on Ubuntu. Now the problem was the sound in Skype which seemed impossible to fix so I decided to move from Ubuntu 8.10 to openSUSE 11.1, which at the time seemed a good idea.
