Ultimate Edition 1.9 has been released

[Esparte]

hey can you add to the new realese the drivers for the mousepen 8x6 tablet, because until now i cant configure my tablet.

[juancholo.]

excellent work can not wait for it.
I hope this does not of the problem with compiz as the 1.8 power configure 4 faces of the cube and the resolution of your monitor so that turns off when charging system and to reach the login is lit.

Hi everybody, it is really looking great, and i´m now like crazy waiting for it.
TheeMahn, i remember when i first installed U.U. 1.8 version i had some trouble with my video drivers, could you please add more drivers to the distro, or the repo, or Ultamatix?

have you all a good day.

ATI and Nvidia is built in .. Or do you have intel?
(edit) using Envy NG

[nicgom]

i have the Intel 855GME chip, it is not in the repo, i had a lot of problems with every kind of graphics, could not set compiz because of that. i´m using now 1.7 on my laptop, and 1.8 on my desktop.
i downloaded the driver from the intel website, but at that time i had a lot to do at the university and no time so i forgot about it, but now that a new version is coming i mencion it again.

have a good day

YOU ARE A MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the best os ever...1.9 should be stoooopid good......cause 1.8 is just perfect...just when i say how good can it get...my question gets answered

[witblits1970]

[TheeMahn]

Thanks brother,

I am sorry for the delay, the admin have been playing with it (what will be Ultimate Edition 1.9) minus the usplash being there and no probs, I just do not like to release incomplete work... I have been working on Ultamatix more then Ultimate Edition 1.9 due to criticism. It does piss me off. Ultamatix in itself is not w/o problems, but steadily have been correcting them. Eventually may use synaptic as the frontend as ubuntus update manager does also written in python a one question this is the changes to be made scenario. #1 complaint --assume-yes --force-yes, do you think I should prompt the end user 101 times after all if the user did not want to install blah blah would he / she have clicked it?

Funny will they run to synaptic to complain or want to come see me? I have about 2 months to sort it out, I am not listed in google and I figure that is the timeframe I am looking at for a "off the hook" release of the software, yesterday I seen ~50,000 hits and am not listed kinda scary, linux.com's homepage will hook a fella up even if you do not exist to googles eyes.

Let me hook you up, you can have the Ultimate Edition 1.9 look (0 apps, just Ultimate Edition themes, usplashs, gdms) w/o actually having it, by downloading this (x86 based only as of current), it is not updated on the main site yet, once again a forum exclusive aren't you glad you are registered The new (unreleased Ultamatix defaults to it).

I guess I am wrong on not being listed (happened less then 24 hours ago) in google now #1, that sucks, I wanted to have 1.8.0-4 on the web before they did that, typically takes 3 months for google to list you. I have owned the domain less then 1 month. This really blows my mind 85,700 references to the word "Ultamatix", not even a word & happened almost overnight. I can feel the scrutiny coming.

Enjoy,

That just goes to show ya how much people love your releases. Your the man TheeMahn. And thank you for the link. You are to kind. If you need another Beta tester, I am your man, I love borking my system and see if I can fix it and if not I reinstall and try again. This is the way I like to learn. I learn a lot faster through this process. Anyway, I would love to be a tester and help improve the final release. Keep up the awesome work TheeMahn. [/quote]

I will post openly a link to the "un-released" Ultamatix, Ultimate Edition 1.9 I am not happy with usplash does not work other then that I would be done with it, damn Ultamatix has had me tied up for days:

• Added key gathering routine if the user decides to use repositories.
• Created custom icons for all categories.

Feel free to report any errors, I get 0, but that does not mean others will not, let me know your experiences good / bad. This is still not 100% in Debian.

#1 complaint --assume-yes --force-yes, do you think I should prompt the end user 101 times after all if the user did not want to install blah blah would he / she have clicked it?

I've stated my opinion on this here. In short, --assume-yes=good, --force-yes=bad.

I will suggest that you steer clear of this tool, no-one is forcing you to run it... I will let you know what I have been "playing" with is using synaptic as a frontend, as does the update manager, you use every day... (also written in python), once that happens it will tell you as a whole all changes that will be made to your system and require you to hit apply only once not 119 times. Which is exactly what would happen if I removed the --assume-yes --force-yes .... I have taken a "plain jane" Ubuntu installed Ultamatix and installed 119 apps / games w/o so much as a hiccup. Once I had accomplished that I then went back and removed every single one of them. Believe me it was not released without rigorous testing, sure you are a special case, the package that is broken is not on my repo, but one that is on your list. Sure it may indeed have had a newer version and that is what broke your system.

Wow breathe this one in, if I did do so exactly as update manager does, would Canonical abandon their update manager? Synaptic?

Did you know with your sources list changed and broken packages there if you did run it even synaptic as your sources list are changed, synaptic would then be what broke your system. Would you then run to synaptic for breaking your system or the maintainer of the repo (this is truly the problem)? Oh the huge difference here it would have asked you before breaking it off, correct? You could have seen that package in the list along with the other 1000 changes to be committed and knew it was broken on one of the sources you added to your list.

Think about it, It is within your best interest to understand that I know what I am talking about. I program in multiple languages and do have a huge concept of what I am referring to. Not to mention created and maintain a repo of my own. I am trying not to bring up created my own distro. Sorry if that may seem cocky.

I will also take the time to "bow" down, I have installed it on Debian Lenny, hmm when did it become my job to support other distros? I have it working about 80% there, not 100% and that is my personal slam to myself. I will go out of my way to help a lady / gent. Criticism believe you me, I need no more of.

I want you to really understand, although not "perfect" yet, the differences, I have never posted this other then to admin:
Lintian is a tool written for debian to find errors and a deb can not be included in their repos until 0 errors exist. Warning are ok and can be overlooked.
