Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu Another review of Ubuntu 6.10: "While using Edgy Eft during the RC series and now the final version, I can say that Edgy Eft is a sweet little operating system that gets the job done. Unfortunately there isn't anything in the standard install of Edgy Eft that will make people drool with delight or think it is truly 'Edgy'. Nevertheless Ubuntu 6.10 is noteable for its solid group of features and consistent amount of polish throughout." Update: One more review, here.

Crash for me, easy to handle though.

If I was a novice user I'd be lost.

I started to like Ubuntu, although I were more of an Arch user (unfortunately the Arch repositories are just too slow on downloading on my end these last weeks) and yesterday I did the upgrade.

Well, I haven't got time to do some thorough testing on this (I guess no one really had). One thing though: just after upgrade my Grub install was totally messed up. It wouldn't even load Grub at startup. Had to boot off a LiveCD (Ubuntu 6.06 live) and fix it ... rather easy to do, but I think it would be a showstopper to someone who only cares about using the software, not tweaking it.
