unity causes user confusion and distress

[jay]

Binary package hint: unity

when a user logs into a unity interface they experience great confusion and panic
after putzing around in it for a while and having great trouble finding a damn thing
the user is forced to reinstall an earlier version just so he can use his fucking laptop
also the thingy that replaced open office does not work at all
please fix soon

running 11.04

I am converting this into a question, since (1) restoring the classic interface does not require reverting to a previous Ubuntu release, (2) LibreOffice (which replaces OpenOffice.org in Ubuntu 11.04) is known to work for most users, (3) no information is given here to substantiate claims about users generally, suggesting that the intention is to report a personal experience and perhaps seek help, and (4) this does not have the necessary level of specificity to be useful to developers as a bug report. In addition to obtaining answers to the issues you've raised here, you can ask at http://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu about how to recommend general changes in Ubuntu as well as on bug reporting. Please do not hesitate to report new bugs as you find them; however, I recommend reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs carefully first.
