Lucid is Nice

Filed under: Linux/FOSS — dann @ 10:54 pm

Well, it’s only a month away now, or there abouts so I figured it was time to upgrade to Lucid. Typical of my previous experiences the upgrade was not that painful. In fact, aside from my trackpad, it was flawless. After being up and running all I had to do was alter this line in my /etc/modprobe.d/options files from

options psmouse proto=imps

to

options psmouse proto=exps*

and bam I was back in business.

I like the gnome theme in Lucid and gnome seemed faster than I’ve ever experienced it before. But, I’m largely a fluxbox guy so that is where I am now. Upgrades to Thunderbird are great, I really like version 3.0. And now that Lightning is working how could it get any better? Who knows? I’m sure the will find a way.

Well I am now considering the jump on my workstation at work. I look forward to the adventure and hope, for works sake, there is little to be done.

Lucid Lynx gets two thumbs up from me! Believe it!
