<pre wrap="">I audited Ubuntu 12 a couple of months ago, and seemed to see the new
Gnome that treats desktops as though they were cellphones. I hated what
I saw, and stuck with 10.04 LTS. That has become a software backwater
with regard to packages like git, scratch et.al.
Is there a way to upgrade to 12.04 and keep my traditional desktop? Or
should I just revert to Slackware times and do my own package installs?
