- After login when system prompts for keyring secret, UNR environment crashes and drops to gnome. I have to relogin if I need UNR env.
- After I removed a few packages it could not just start gnome panel causing a great inconvenience. I guess this is due to Evolution integration with latest Ubuntu. Mail client I like and use is Thunderbird. I cant switch to Evolution.
- Initially after 10.04 release it was damn slow to respond, so had to do some work around to get it to acceptable speed.
Considering all that I decided to switch to Xfce. It just worked like charm. But now I also use (and like :) ) UbuntuOne service for my backup. UbuntuOne is not integrated for XFCE. Also you cant do everything from UbuntuOne’s cli.
u1sdtool -q; killall ubuntuone-login; u1sdtool -c # configuration
u1sdtool --create-folder ~/my_data # add folders you want to be synced
u1sdtool --list-folders
u1sdtool --current-transfers
