I hate to tell you and you worked hard on it...and Im not putting anyone down.
It just does not work correctly.
It probably has to do with Ubuntu...and not your twaeks.
Or it could be I have the wrong dependencies.
I only see the same problems continuing with 2.9...when 2.8 is not fixed as yet.
Im going back to what worked for me.
sorry

When other new distros are released, regardless of desktop environment, I give them a whirl on a test machine. When Kubuntu 10.04 LTS was first released I installed it on a test machine, tweaked it to how I like it and, I don't know how to tell you this, but, I'm still using it. I love KDE!!

I think it's really improved since the first 4.x series was released. I know sometimes you integrate KDE with your releases so you can choose at the login screen,but lets face it, apps designed for GTK gnome are ugly on KDE QT and vice versa. I bet if you made an Ultimate "K" ubuntu distro with all the bells and whistles it would be a masterpiece!!! Please consider it!!

Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 - more then a maintenance release.

I felt since Ubuntu drops maintenance releases. IE 10.04.1, it is Long Term Support (LTS), for us to to do likewise. I do not look for there to be a Ultimate Edition 2.6.2, for a lack of a better word it is perfect. For my perceivable future I intend to run this O/S, not that there is anything wrong with Ultimate Edition 2.8. Amazing how many bugs get squashed shortly after a "final release", a few I have personally implemented. I am thinking Ultimate Edition 2.9 only to run momentarily as I build it. Why some may ask? I am not a KDE mahn

If I was currently running Ultimate Edition 2.6, would I run out and snag 2.6.1? If I was happy with my current O/S absolutely not, the only real gain would be the "fixes", updates and upgrades, which you have probably already downloaded & installed through your update manager. If I somehow managed to whack my O/S 2.6.1 would be the logical answer.

Well on to the details, what is Ultimate Edition 2.6.1?

I have many a release already in works, some are uploaded. Watch us over the next 2 weeks. Sometimes it is best to step backwards before moving forward. Many new things I hope to introduce you to. This one was first on my list & it was not an introduction, mainly fixing things. I find it to be bulletproof. I hope you are as happy with it as I am. I am not going to slow down on work, we will have a Ultimate Edition 2.8 Gamers and a Ultimate Edition 2.9 coming. Mr. Breeg will build gamers this weekend. I do have some bad news for you there, however now is not the time.

Enjoy Ultimate Edition 2.6.1,

TheeMahn
