Dear Mat,
Ubuntu 11.10 sofware center did not provide a textual search bar to navigate
applications as we have with U 11.04. Due to this & many other bugs I
dropped back to 11.04. I will wait for U 11.10 or maybe U 12.x before I
upgrade. We suffer from conflicting application with Ubuntu since
introduction of Unity. I can live with Unity although it's DULL & BORING in
comparison to other Docs. 3d is not being exploited to capacity.

U 11.10 Update Manager does not function at all well. Apps installed are not
providing "more" to add or remove applets. Apps removed are still being
upgraded & aditional applets offered in the list. Again I dropped back to
the robust reliable logical U 11.04 to regain sensible update management :)

Textual search seen in U 11.04 this was missing from U 11.10. Perhaps a
simple missing (tick) from a box I simply could not be bothered to search
for. I need an OS than "works for me" I don't wish to become a programmer to
make basic OS function. I am happy with U 10.04 I can work with it & look
forwards to Unity 3d with full exploitation of WoW features. eg whirlpool
swirl zoom in & out of windows etc. IE Linux Mint 11 (wow it sure looks
cool) Pitty L 11 was unable to locate my WIFI. Again having installed from
usb pen which found wifi. The actual intsllation was unable to repeat same.
I could have setup wifi myself. But once again I need an OS that "works for
me" not an OS that demans that I "work for it".

I'm unable to provide image of U 11.10 Upgdrade manager acting dumb cuz I
removed U 11.10.
Hope this helps in some way Mat.
