Ok, so I've been trying to get some experience using Unity again as I haven't really played with it since 11.04. At that time, I had difficulty getting my comfort routine to conform to the way Unity works so I ended up going in different directions and eventually becoming a KDE user.
Anyway, trying to get some time with it, I loaded 14.04 into VBox and it crashed. Not just the VBox though, the whole desktop (Debian 7) right down to a locked up TTY session. It happened during apt-get upgrade and some guest additions started coming in that took the whole thing down. This was the x64 iso so I switched to the i386 iso and still got the same results. I ended up having to get rid of the Ubuntu with Unity iso and instead switched over to Kubuntu 14.04 and it seems to be stable and working even after update & upgrade. This is fine, except I'm kind of bummed because I really want to spend some time with Unity. I'm not interested in doing a dual boot or scrubbing Wheezy just yet; particularly if I haven't had the chance to play for a while first. Has anyone else had this issue with trying to run Unity 14.04 in VBox? I suppose I *could* try running it in KVM and see if I get better results that way but I don't want to go pushing my luck before asking around. -- Scott DuBois "The true sign of intelligence is...
