Maverick notes
·1 min
I recently upgraded to Maverick beta. Here are my thoughts and observations:
- Despite the huge number of PPAs and unofficial debs I had on my system, the upgrade itself was very smooth
- Everything looks much crisper, probably due to the two updates to the Light themes
- Python 2.5 was removed. I work on software that still supports Python 2.4, so that’s a pain
- The keyboard indicator is nicer (I can read it), but it says “USA” when I want it to say “Dvorak”
- The booting process is still flashes between screen resolutions, switches to black then back again
- I still have to rmmod iwlagn; modprobe iwlagn sometimes
- “Print to file” from Chrome produced a single blank page of PDF
- I don’t know how I feel about the Me & Message menus
I guess lots of these are bugs. They are, after all, easier to notice.
