Oh, cool! Now when you run "software sources" you can have it search for the fastest mirror near you. :shock: :D

Heres a screenshot. Not really fond of the Control Center approach, but it will likely get cleaned up for the final release.

Quote from: skidzillaUbuntu is to operating systems; what Louis Vuitton is to man-bags. :mrgreen:

I wholeheartedly agree. :D

Does this OS make me look fat? :shrug:

Woohoo, last update broke X. Finally some excitement! :D This is what running the bleeding edge is all about. :lol:

Being a delightful Debian step child, I fixed it in a minute with two runs of "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", having to manually set the resolution the second time. Oh so 1999! :lol: But this is why I love my penguin. I was able to install Lynx and browse the web w/o X till I remembered my dpkg command. :lol: :P

EDIT: Yesss! They got rid of the stoopit control panel and are back to having real menus. All the complaints worked. :D
