Intrepid Brings Me Back
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. Mainly because I haven’t been making any changes worth documenting since I installed Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron on my MacBook. Unfortunately, my experience with that setup was rather disappointing. After spending lots of time getting everything working and customizing everything, the computer was frustratingly unstable. Often the laptop would suspend and never wake up, and too many times something would become unusable, forcing a reboot. So I basically stopped using the MacBook and turned to my ThinkPad with a reliable Vista installation.
Now I’m back with high hopes for the latest version of Ubuntu, 8.10 Intrepid Ibex. The reports from alpha and beta testers have been encouraging, so I’m going to give it a try on the MacBook. Everything is backed up and ready to go, so I’m starting the install now, and I’ll be back with details.
