Devs should repackage their software the way Windows has done.
Wifi isn’t the problem it once was. It’s going on leaps and bounds - but it’s not fixed yet. What I would say is drivers are produced by companies that like to keep their secrets - what works on Windows is because a company has spent a huge amount of time, money and effort to make it so. What works on Linux, 9 out of 10, is because individuals have spent spare time and effort to get it to work.
Many wireless devices not recognised previously now work - I know this from experience. For love nor money I couldn’t get my laptop to connect to my home network, even though it could see it. Trust me - chance are someone, somewhere, is working on it.
For SIP videoconferencing/normal phone I switched to Linphone - which installs smoothly on Ubuntu with just a couple of clicks :-) (Version 1.7.1 is OK)
It has all the features Ekiga has and some more (such as better video codecs then h261)

Btw, I use Ubuntu 7.04 on my Dell Inspiron laptop... run Windows based games on WINE, have been able to play all audio and video files (including H.264) Overall system stability has been excellent and to-date all updates have worked without issue (sure can’t say that about Windows at my office)
Complaints? Sure. Firefox seems to have a stability issue with Rhapsody’s music player on my laptop, but that’s not enough to convince me to re-install the Windoze that came with this laptop (thanks for nothing Dell!) My Mobility X1400 still doesn’t support Compiz to the best of my knowledge... just a driver issue... it’ll be resolved.
Anyone who is against DRM should be avoiding Windows Vista at all costs... it’s just one giant DRM installation meant to control the user. As a Vista user you are nothing but a potential thief in the eye’s of Microsoft... you can’t be trusted at all and instead of spending time writing useful code, they release update after update to disable unlicensed systems... all the while catching some innocent bystanders in the process. Anyone who is against their operating system having a remote kill switch integrated into it... yes, they too should avoid Vista.
Where all of the different distros end up helping Microsoft, I think Vista has partially helped offset this by being so blatantly horrible.
Ok, I’m done.
As it was and is in the last two releases
#1: doesn’t sound like a GNOME problem.
#3: sounds like a problem with the printer driver.
#4: when is the last time you used Ubuntu? sounds to me like you used an old version that didn’t have the ability to automatically find missing codecs and install them. (now a GNOME feature as well). plus for DVD you could install a package that allows you to play the encripted ones.
#5: that would be a problem with OpenOffice.org.
#6: apparently this isn’t a problem.
apparently, out of the 4 real problems you listed, 1 is a GNOME problem, 1 is an OpenOffice.org problem, 1 is a Canon problem, 1 I don’t know.
so the only problem you found with GNOME will be fixed in 6 months. no problems with Ubuntu. the other two are a problem with a third party app and lack of support for a comercial company. complain to the relevant people/organizations. about HD audio, it sounds to me like it’s probably a manufacturer that doesn’t support Linux, so why don’t you complain to them? maybe, if you complain, the situation would get better. maybe the drivers have been fixed/updated/created so your sound card and printer would now work properly.
LOL :-D Gnome 2.21 :-)
"that 1 big improvement comes up once a year - to fix all the above, would require another 5 years (or 2-3 in the best scenario)..."
ROTFL
Jam, you don’t even know what you are writing about - don’t do that...
Another important feature, is embedded read & write onto NTFS-3G (Window’s NTFS) Partitions.
Other than that, I can’t seem to see any other "usefull" improvement...
I have quit Linux, since I could:
1. Not set up HD Audio on my newly bought Mobo
2. Not VoIP chat through Ekiga
3. Not Print in Color with my Canon Printer
4. Not being able to play/view certain types of audio/video files on my Ubuntu PC.
5. Not being able to use OOO Calc’s Data/Filters (not as good when compared to MS Excel’s Data/Filter capabilities)
6. Not Setup all my Ubuntu PCs to auto-update from a single Ubuntu Machine (I used to have to download updates multiple times for each of the networked pc’s)...
I have read that Gnome v2.22 has plans to fix the Ekiga VoIP client.
Based on the above statement, since Gnome v2.21 is coming up in 6 months from now (i.e. March 2008), Gnome v2.22 should be coming up around this time next Year...
Based on the following assumption - that 1 big improvement comes up once a year - to fix all the above, would require another 5 years (or 2-3 in the best scenario)...
Thanks,
jam
I also use Debian---
But don’t say Fedora is bad, it only shows your ignorance...
Regardless, this wasn’t an Ubuntu revelation.
