flawless pulseaudio? that must be a joke considering the numerous forum threads from people (including myself) who have no sound after a fresh install. ubuntu is really doing damage to my theory that it 'just works' out of the box... makes me look bad when i rec it.

The thing still boots like a cow, but now it has a mouse icon instead, and audio is incredibly dodgy. I found this blog post by googling for an issue that half the time media wont play at all in any program: no errors or anything . . . until I reboot a few times. Oh yeah, this after I had to explain to the horrible new audio control panel thing that Firefox 3.5 and Chromium should not be muted.

IT'S now possible to use telephaty with msn audio/video chat
you friend with xp-live messenger, and you with telepathy, audio/video chat is possible (very frequent than you think)

2009-06-25T10:48:59.996-04:00

The lack of encryption (neither OTR nor GPG as I understand the FAQ) is a vital flaw of Empathy. The reasons in the FAQ don't make much sense to me: so while we're waiting for a protocol with build-in encryption, to which hopefully enough of us will migrate, we don't have any encryption at all?

No thanks, I will stick to Gajim (GPG) as my main Jabber client with Pidgin as fallback for OTR.

@Daryn:
Glitch-free doesn't imply flawless anyway. Glitch-free is only free of glitches on good hardware with good drivers.

PulseAudio will not be flawless until the ALSA drivers are properly fixed. Right now, they're a pile of bandages trying to cover up all the mistakes.

2009-06-19T03:14:34.498-04:00

nothing special about Karmic . when it was annouced we heard it would come with plymouth which would a visual pleasing to the eye boot process. and we heard it would come with a UI Revamp .. as it is non of this will happen. Karmic will end up being yet another gloried Service Pack upgrade. (not that this is necessarily a bad thing just that canonical should try and manage expectations next time when making announcements ...

2009-06-19T00:06:59.397-04:00

Ubuntu is coming along quite nicely. Empathy suits me fine. Pidgin and Ekiga will, of course, be available to download for those which Empathy doesn't work for them. At the end of the day, a difficult but correct decision.

As all people said MSN is being used from most people,I agree,BUT I used to have MSN and of course delete it after my entrance in Linux world and also encourage my friends to go away too or have to IT accounts.So today I use GoogleTalk as my friends too.And of course they all now use Ubuntu.

2009-06-18T16:10:59.221-04:00

Lol I switched to mac osx and am now excite about such things [1] and you are excite about a new boot loader?! Or intel drivers which are finally supposed to work and not to forget the loved pulse audio which is now "perfect" but broke sound on Ubuntu for like two years or so.. I'm really happy I made the switch

2009-06-18T15:23:31.915-04:00

Word around the campfire is that there won't be a totally new theme until the next LTS+1, but there will be theming improvements in Karmic.

2009-06-18T15:10:11.978-04:00

I really like that Empathy finally is getting mature/incuded, but it's a big disappointment that noone is willing to support common protocols and use cases and instead do strange stuff geeky special stuff like GPS support. Which will be very cool to have once Empathy is useable in real world situations...
