Draw brown backgrounds?
You would think that with Dell being their main OEM partner they would make sure not to break any Dell computers with an update.
They have caused problems for people with Minis as well.

Yeah, Ubuntu ships PulseAudio with broken patches and let's blame Fedora for that. How nice

In general, Ubuntu has worked substantially better for my users, and for me, than Fedora ever did. Emprically speaking, that much is pretty definite. It's the tendrils shooting out of the Fedora camp to poison other distros which take me aback. And yes, I do blame the Ubuntu devs for falling for the hype. Ubuntu should not be using such alpha software as Pulseaudio. Red Hat's perpetual pre-alpha distro is threatening to take the rest of Linux down with it. And I think it's about time that the community started turning a more suspicious and pragmatic eye upon projects coming from under the Fedora canopy.
Some are OK. Others are quite poisonous.
