Ubuntu fail

[mindstalk]

Wifi support for netbooks seems to be regressing. With 10.04, I lost the ability to connect to some WPA networks (by report, those using TKIP encryption.) I still haven't found a fix I'm willing to try messing with. (I only found out about this after moving out.) 10.10 is out, and I just googled for wifi threads on it, and lots of people seem to be reporting connection failure in general, and not just on the eee. I sure won't be upgrading...

Grrrr.

I think Ubuntu is at risk of cratering. They have this absurdly ambitious release schedule which, to my mind, is preventing them from addressing some of the really serious flaws.

Hm, that sucks. 10.04 has been pretty much flawless for me.
