I have found Mint very good on my asus laptop, and Debian sid fine on
the desktop.
I took a look at 11.10.
Found none of the laptop shortcut/keys such as sound mute; brightness
etc were working.  They were under 10.04
Wvdial is not closing the modem down when you use control c to exit the
terminal. Oh and a couple of other things that were just annoying
including the Unity tool bar yuk.
So good bye Ubuntu.  Have been with it from the beginning, but no more.
Life is too short for the crap they are putting out now.
Suspect I will be banned from this kist after this post.
Cheers The kiwi
