I wanted to go back to Linux desktop at home earlier this year. I installed a mainstream distro with default options. The first time screensaver activated I was unable to unlock without jumping to a vt and doing stuff on the command line. I don't have time for that so gave up. I've previously been a regular user and gave up because of poor multi monitor support. Seems things actually went backward while I was away.

For me what irks me is that I customize the hell out it and things break. Right no I have a simple openbox install but disabled avahi and a bunch of things I don't need. Took a day to get it working but still, after login it hangs for 5min+ before the desktop+taskbar shows up. Haven't even found an error logged somewhere. It also waits for 2 min on a shutdown job when turning it off. I just accept stuff like this and tolerate it.
