"For example, I found starting applications to be a hit or miss
procedure at this point. In particular, sometimes I could get
LibreOffice, Ubuntu 11.04’s default office suite, to work sometimes I
couldn’t. If there was any rhyme or reason to this behavior I don’t
know what it was."

This is exactly the sort of weird flakiness I experienced using Unity
in trying to seriously use it as my usual desktop. Not LibreOffice in
particular, but just *everything*. It is possible that everything is
suddenly working properly a couple of weeks from now, but I'd be very
surprised indeed.
