bugs as i see linux at this time (20% better from 4-6 yrs ago as we now have an GUI installer and alot of drivers for stuff now work)

the other 80% needs sorting

As working for my self using Linux seems an good idea but as one stated there needs to be an GUI for every Terminal command or config file, if I give an pc with ubuntu on it not sure how long it take for them to ring me and ask me what do I do

Ubuntu in some cases Hides useful GUI tools that need to be started from the Terminal, in that case is an step backwards

Having to move mouse off every button to click on it needs fixing as well (you click on an button that was greyed out then comes clickable you try and click on it does Nothing until mouse is moved off and back onto it agene)

0 help on install of ubuntu is also an other problem (also stated some ware in there) if the norm user comes to Linux/ubuntu he should not need to use Terminal (basic limited help files)

Adding new hardware - I have found its allot more easlyer to Reinstall Linux then it is to find out how I get an new peace of hardware to work (Kubuntu does an better job at this or should I say KDE),

also adding an new hdd can be an task in it self on Ubuntu its wasted 4 hrs of my time trying to work out how I get an hdd to format on ubuntu server once I did there was NO GUI tools for settings security and using err
{the program in terminal that I do not know what’s its called ubuntu had no info on what the commands do even me as an techy I need Basic to adv how-to and I work it out my self}
 but the info was not there like it was 6-7 yrs ago when I used Red Hat in the end I gave up and loaded windows 2003 and formatted the disk in 30 sacs after windows was installed all 6 disks worked as well

I was only run like 2-3 programs on my server emule newsbin and IRC , and I wanted to be able to use them and Remote control (VNC) and that was crap as well it was Rendering each frame not accepting Mouse click all the time

Windows wins out on GUI for configuring every thing <<< or maybe not I just tried
-Mandria 2007 ONE But NO auto update unless you pay for it and the help files do not work so i say no to this one
-Open suse 10.2 had no problems (installing it not for novices though) << the way suse does this it has made me think linux be as good and user frendly a lot sooner then I thought before like 2 more yrs and I think we have an usable dstros

In windows VMware {as I have been typing this}
And all the GUI options was there like M$ windows has to an limited degree >>>

The OS needs to be user friendly and the Main menu needs to start at the bottom left (can’t give Gnome to a normal user as it though him right off the mark so I only use KDE only as main window)

Even my self it take allot to make me got Linux more as I can get things done in M$ windows mostly instantly
