As a rule I usually upgrade my 2 Linux development systems when a new release comes out. Fedora 15 recently came out and I updated it. I did the same with Ubuntu 11.04.
I should have looked at what was changing and stopped. Does anyone know why the human interface changed in both so drasticly? If you still use a keyboard and mouse, the new UIs require a lot more work to use. I use the O/S that is reqired to do the job a hand. Whether I was on Mac OS X, Linux, or Windows, I could quickly figure out how to get things done. But with F15 and Ubuntu 11.04, I'm lost most of the time. I don't think you can blame it on tablets because tablets all have new types of input devices like touchscreen or wheels and they usually have customer UIs, like the Android and iPad tablets do.
I'm hoping some sanity returns soon to the UI for normal Linux.
P.S. F15 has a lot of bugs just getting things to work, like adding printers, connecting to servers, etc. None of this was a problem with F14.
i burn the DVD of F15 64bit, during installation, after packages customization, it tells me there is a perl package cannot be read,
could it be my *.iso image got defect?
The installation fails.
