1. Kernel: Ever heard of LTS enablement stacks? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
2. Upstart: Works for me. I like systemd too, but I'm not going to switch distros to get it.
3. Auto-restart: As you said, it's a Debian thing. If you really don't like it, look into /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d
4. MySQL: sudo apt-get install mariadb-server (yeah, it's in the official repo)
5. Pollinate & AppArmor: If you don't want them, disable them.
6. Compiz & Mir: Use another desktop environment. Also, in case you missed the news, Mir has been postponed indefinitely.
- ciferkey 13y agoCould you clarify what you mean in point six about mir?

- slinkyavenger 13y agoRegarding #6: please cite your sources on Mir being postponed indefinitely. I can't find anything except that it's now scheduled for 16.04. Furthermore, Ubuntu mobile will have Mir as part of its stack, so I can't see why they'd postpone it.
- kijin 13y agoFor a distro that moves as quickly as Ubuntu does, a two-year delay is about as good as indefinite postponement. In effect, they're saying "We'll watch how the Wayland vs. Mir competition goes." It's just like what happened with Upstart vs. systemd. Just because Canonical has a horse in the race doesn't mean that they won't switch to a different horse when everyone else does.
