Ubuntu is sucking more and more (will pay for fixes..) : suspend/resume and dual monitor issues


I just dont know - Ubuntu is sucking so much more that it is affecting my work severely. I have infact made an offer to buy Amazon gift coupons for fixes.

Bug 568711 is particularly nasty : it targets suspend and resume behavior. The worst part is that it is confirmed with a severity of medium and is currently unassigned. What is this -throw laptop users under a bus day ? It is things like this that is making Windows 7 more and more attractive as an alternative OS.

Bug 613628 affects my ability to use multiple monitors which is absolutely the way I work these days. What is sad about this bug is that it affects the chipsets with a fully  open source driver  (intel graphics) and these are the ones that are most popular on laptops. Just take a look at the workarounds for the intel graphics drivers - there are 6 workarounds.

I simply cannot wait for the Wayland graphics stack and end this crap once and for all.
