24 hours with t' Intrepid Alpha
Ayeterday I installed t' latest Alpha o' Ubuntu, Intrepid Ibex. I installed t' alpha on 2 different machines and experienced mixed results.
T' first machine I installed it on was me notebook. I really only use me notebook for browsin' t' web and communicatin', I do not use it for any mission critical activities, so I be easy when it comes t' usin' t' machine for testin' purposes. Me notebook, an Acer Extensa 4220, took t' installation flawlessly, apart from t' wireless, which has never worked. I have only been usin' t' installation for about 24 hours, but I be impressed with what I have seen so far.
In fact, I was so impressed with me notebook installation, I decided t' install t' alpha on me desktop, an old Compaq Evo. As with me notebook, I rarely use me desktop for anythin' important and so I be fairly easy when it comes t' usin' it for testin'. This time I was not so impressed, t' installation worked fine, but after performin' an apt-get update/upgrade, t' system decided it not want t' play ball and started t' experience some xorg issues. I have reported these issues and will continue t' attempt a fix.
So, 2 installations o' Intrepid on 2 different machines in 1 day. 1 installation rocks. 1 installation blows. It be all good fun.
By t' way, sorry for me silly pirate speak :)
