Found another brick in the wall - Super OS 9.10 launched 12-28-09 with supposed 169
patches and updates(a supposed 9.10 on steroids, which sort of limps along) continues with the DSL issue,
does Canonical really care?
Well it seems you have the jump on this one !
I have heard of "Super Ubuntu" but never really went any further after finding Ultimate Edition, After doing some preliminary investigation I see They have included some of what they chastised TheeMahn
for In the beginning ! This is a blatant attempt on there part to try and "catch up"(IMO)
(do you see any resemblance )
* Adobe Reader
* aMule
* aMSN
* Autopackage
* Brasero
* compizconfig-settings-manager (to configure the settings of Compiz and the desktop effects)
* EnvyNG (command line version)
* Firefox
* Furius ISO Mount
* GParted
* GIMP
* gufw (GUI for uncomplicated firewall)
* MPlayer (media player)
* NDISwrapper and ndisgtk
* OpenOffice.org 3
* Opera
* padevchooser (the graphical interface for PulseAudio)
* RealPlayer 11
* SFS Technology
* Smart Package Manager
* Skype
* StartUp-Manager
* Mozilla Thunderbird
* ubuntu-restricted-extras (Java runtime environment, codecs, MP3 support, support for DVD-video, flash player...)
* Ubuntu Tweak
* VLC Media Player
* Wine
* Wine-Doors
* Zero Install
Hell the only thing missing is Ultimatix! And of coarse TheeMahn's touch!
You say "Sort of limp's along" and "continues with the DSL issue" So you have tried this little gem and still no love !
You ask "does canonical care?" OH yes my friend they care! Or they wouldn't feel the need to compete ! They know All about Ultimate Edition and TheeMahn ! All to well ! and Thats why this little item is even on the board! They have caught a lot of $#!* about Karmic and all the Grand changes While not addressing the existing "bugs" And it appears DSL config.live being one of those issues,....Devils advocate: They still provide an enormous amount of input into Linux and opensource community , Yes they do care or they wouldn't even care if it works or not,(still one of the most stable) No one is getting any richer with this endeavor(?), So money is not the motivation, There is a lot things that can go wrong trying to cover everybody elses drivers, programs and applications,And sometimes things get put on the back burner to address "hotter"issues.......... Back to us.........Connections, Of any kind, Should be of utmost importance !
skeuzz me,! I didn't mean to go off on a rant!
I,We, Will continue to look for an answer to this issue, It is out there, We just have to find it ! Think of it like a treasure hunt!!
