[ubuntu-us-in] What's your opinion of Ubuntu 11.10?

[Joe Miller]

I'm liking it so far, Unity-3d runs much better on my hardware (last cycle
it worked off the live cd, but not on the regular install until an update
midway through it started working but slowly) I've switched back to openbox
as my main session though. Only downsides for me personally are it doesn't
remember which session was booted last so it auto logs into Unity, and for
some reason the file managers didn't show folder icons or anything until I
installed gnome-shell
