Unity ?

[Darcy Casselman]

Keep in mind you can still use Gnome 2 (the old Gnome panel interface we
know and love) in 11.04.  You don't even need to install anything.  It's a
session option ("Ubuntu Classic Desktop) on login.  Randall "Ubuntu
Vancouver" Ross explains: http://randall.executiv.es/unity_form_letter

As for getting drivers that work, that's an eternal struggle.  We've made
great strides, but without support of the hardware vendors themselves, it's
never going to be a wonderful experience.  So buy hardware from vendors that
supports Linux.

Darcy.
