It is not even as great as 7.10!<BR><BR>I am running Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit on my desktop PC since its release date, and I am still experiencing a few issues after latest updates.<BR><BR>1. Flash player inside firefox does not work properly when more than one flash player page is opened. the later opened one may not display the flash content.<BR>2. Flash play will play first 4 sec without sound then stop if there is another application needs to use sound (mp3 player). It may not only happens with flash, i think some other application is also having this problem.<BR><BR>3. wine is not reading the fonts in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts <-- i know it might be more like wine's problem<BR>4. not able to play back rmvb files by using mplayer. the codec seems installed, but it is not doing the job<BR><BR><BR>I can go on and on...<BR><BR>My point is, I was not experiencing any of these issue when i was use 7.10. I know some of them may need some tweaks, but i was able to make it work. <BR><BR>when i first install 8.04, i was surprised it ships with FF3 beta. I know FF3 will be released soon at that time, but it is not a good idea to put it in a LTS even though you are going to update it later.<BR><BR>the new kernel, 2.6.24, is having a lot of compatible issue. For example, VMware does not like that new kernel, some modules can not be compiled.<BR><BR><BR>It might only be 64 bit's problem only, since i need it to see all my ram without enable pae or hugemem. Or that is just my stupid configuration or limited knowledge.<BR><BR>I think, Ubuntu team should really re-consider using the newest software package in the LTS release. The newest is not always the "best" in linux. <BR><BR>I will re-install 8.04 64bit tonight to see if i can fix those issues i listed. If not, i think i will go back to 7.10.<BR><BR>Thanks<BR><FONT color=#888888><BR>Q<BR><BR></FONT><BR></DIV></DIV>--<BR>ubuntu-users mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" target=_blank>ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</A><BR>Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <A href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target=_blank>https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</A><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><FONT color=#888888><BR><BR clear=all><BR>-- <BR>Jim Rosser<BR>Winchester Designs </FONT><BR>--<BR>ubuntu-users mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</A><BR>Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <A href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target=_blank>https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</A><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></BODY></HTML>
