Gutsy just not ready… “my opinion”

with one comment

I gave Gutsy a good try for a few weeks but there are too many little quirks, wanted to install an nvidia kernel component when I had the i810 driver, I tried reconfiguring the xorg adapter driver to be the intel and not the i810 and the screen rendering improved but still did not really make me happy as compiz and 3ddesktop didnt work.

cupsys had some access denied messages when installing packages and was generally too quirky right now to be a functional desktop, I knew the risks going to Gutsy and I gave it a shot. Maybe in a few more months I will try again.

I found a great rollback option forum posting that used something refered to apt pinning, worked like a charm:
