@Kewball "Ubuntu have decided Unity the only desktop environment."
What about GNOME 3 with the GNOME Shell instead of Unity (install gnome- shell, pick session type GNOME), GNOME 3 Fallback (package gnome- session-fallback, pick GNOME Classic), Xfce4 (install xubuntu-desktop and pick session type Xubuntu, or install Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu), LXDE (install lubuntu-desktop and pick session type Lubuntu, or install Lubuntu instead of Ubuntu), or KDE 4 Plasma (install kubuntu-desktop and pick session type Kubuntu, or install Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu)? GNOME 3 with the GNOME Shell, as well as GNOME 3 Fallback, are installable from the universe component of the official, default-enabled repositories on Ubuntu 11.10 (and before that Ubuntu Classic was available). Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Lubuntu are official Ubuntu derivatives (though Lubuntu is only official as of version 11.10) and their functionality is available for any already-installed Ubuntu system by installing the corresponding -desktop packages, from either the universe or main components of the official, default-enabled repositories. (You don't generally need to know or care what component something comes from to install it, I've just included that info in case it is of interest.) @eZFlow "KDE is many times faster .... then GNOME ...." Can you cite evidence for this? That is not my experience, nor the experience of any of the users I've communicated with except you, even if you are specifically comparing the KDE 4 Plasma desktop to a GNOME 3 desktop with Unity or GNOME Shell. (If you are comparing GNOME 2 to KDE 4 Plasma, then your assertion seems even more unlikely.) In recent years, widespread community belief has held, and my own personal experience has seemed to confirm, that KDE is the most resource- intensive desktop environment. That could be wrong though--widespread belief is not always true, and there may well be a systematic flaw or limitation in the ways I have tested KDE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733349 Title: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
