"Various reviews I've seen about Ubuntu have attacked the release names (Hoary Hedgehog, Breezy Badger and upcoming Dapper Drake), or the 'ugly' brown GNOME screen background (which is easily changed). I consider such "flaws" to be trivial. When push comes to shove, I want my operating system to 'just work', and in this department Ubuntu delivers."

One (very) happy Ubuntu 5.10 user here...does anyone care ? After few sudo apt-get install *prog (including kubuntu-desktop) i have the desktop of my dreams. I didn't see any brown wallpapers (how could it be different if i am leaving my home directory on separate partition untouched during the upgrade) .
No nvidia-drivers, sound, or any other problems. Boot up is ultra fast, detection absolutely fenomenal (although i don't have any 'fancy' stuff like winmodems).My fastest install ever. Must mention here that it was clean install (dist-upgrade messed some things & finished with some errors, but hey - that's probably why this method of upgrading is marked 'experimental'..)
My only complaint is general, not directly related to Ubuntu. I wish i could say to my frien, whom i am going to install Ubuntu that i can install all the stuff i have on my box even before we connect to the internet. Maybe there should be some additional cd's for download with even more soft. I know, that using debian distribution almost implies having broadband connection, yet still i would prefer to have the opportunity to install all the goodies from cd's.
So after reading quite a few comments from this topic i guess that beeing happy with Ubuntu i am in minority....or am i ?
