You don't backup the software itself, you just backup a file, which contains all your installed applications. The software is reinstalled using the repository, when recovering the system!

I would like one pppoe tool and of course pppow tool that does great job like the one in xp or even better

right now (dsl) tab in network manager is not useful , when connection problem happens it just disconnects , there is no messages or log at all and it only supports cable-dsl or pppoe and not pppow (that is over wifi)

and the cli options all need to be configured for specific interface

I mean not like xp , you just need to creat a broadband connection shortcut on the desktop and then enter your username and password , it does not matter the dsl on which interface

I think you have got the idea

the reason this feature is important is that its widely used in parts of africa and the middle east especially in iraq where I live , the biggest isp uses pppow

and whenever I introduce ubuntu to someone , the first question I face is (how about the INTERNET CONNECTION???)

whenever I talk about cli (pppoeconf or pppoe-setup ,…), I wish I did not talked about ubuntu when I see the look on the winblows fans faces

The worry about Ubuntu is they seem to be thinking everyone in the world uses a 299. dollar 8" notebook. They need to keep hardware and plug and play functional as a lot of people still use FLOPPY and tape to access archived files.

We also have jolicloud and the big daddy android and then later on chrome os (we'll see if they prefer it over android) well at least the highly requested feature: “we want gimp single window mode” is already being handled so no need to include that anymore ^^

well i like all your suggestions since these (basically all) are things they are already working on and hopefully they will be here by 10.10

anyway remember 2010 will be the year of the SmartBook and we need to focus 150% on that experience

meaning:

-faster

-lightweight

-simpler to use

-touch screen

-online-experience/integration

i bet the moblin remix will be wonderful, however since it was intel, its optimized for atom and not for arm probably. We also have jolicloud and the big daddy android and then later on chrome os (we’ll see if they prefer it over android)
