Ubuntu works well enough, with a lower number of desktop crashes of what I had in 2004. Fancy? No. Stable and robust? hardly, for other desktop standards anyway

Ubuntu works well enough, with a lower number of desktop crashes of what I had in 2004. Fancy? No. Stable and robust? hardly, for other desktop standards anyway, but sort of, by Linux standards.... if you can dismiss the graphics card not registering after hibernation, and that will be for at least one decade now. I relinquished hope a long time ago... Still, Ubuntu beats the user-experience I get in other operating systems, which all seem to include a perfectly working driver for a well hidden pheromone sensor that triggers OS updates at the worst possible moment, sometimes after showing annoying pop-ups that can't be tucked away without going through an agonizing martyrdom of clicks and dialogs.
