Are you saying Ubuntu to a pain is the ass? You might want to "shop around" as it were. There are plenty of other distros to choose from.
Fedora 18

@eswaran: Firefox hanging, what?
I'm afraid this is off-topic and you should ask on the Ubuntu Forums.

I used to have Ubuntu 9.04 installed, but after getting 8GB of ram I switched to Linux Mint 64 Gloria. My other computer is dualboot with Linux Mint / Windows XP.
I'm currently using Kubuntu Jaunty (9.04) with KDE 4.3. Used Mandriva and OpenSuSE before, but I like Kubuntu much more 'cause it's not overloaded with extra software stuff for setting up, you know?
And I need to use Windows for my music recording stuff. ATM it's Windows Vista HB and Windows 7 RC1.

Eeebuntu+LXDE on the Eee1000, Ubuntu 9.04 on the x86 desktop. The desktop was the first time I ever tried a distro and ended up continuously using it without feeling like maintaining it and tweaking it was a life-consuming hobby. Now I just *use* the computer, and I've finally completely and permanently ditched Windows with confidence. (Ok, so I got a little Wine going on, but still..no dual-boot!)
Eeebuntu on my Eee netbook w/Opera is awesome, btw.

I have problem with Ubuntu in my notebook, it doesn´t shutdown in sometimes, I have to do it manual and last when is shutdown and after I turn the battery is percent uncharged like some laptop´component are working after I shutdown because I quit the battery to my laptop and doesn´t uncharged along. Any advice or help?????
After trying several distros I settled on OpenSuSe for my desktop.
Though my laptop does seem to like Ubuntu the best.

In the 90's I started with Red Hat. Then I moved on to Fedora and Knoppix. Eventually I ended up on Distrowatchdotcom and I went nuts! I tried almost everything on the list. I settled on Ubuntu. It's not bad, I like it.
I've trying several distros
(K)ubuntu 8.04
ubuntu 9.04
openSuSE 10x 11x
Gentoo
Mandriva '08 '09
not so much to say "i've tried almost everything"
now I choose openSuSE with KDE4 . very stable system,ease to set up it it allows you to do anything with it the way you like: manually writing config files or using Yast.
I use it at home and at work and like it)
all I can say about other systems I've tried, and was tolled about Gentoo - is the way to build smth fast and clear. There will be only what you need and nothing else. I have it at work and "having some fun" with it on a free time.

My desktop is running Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit and I love it.
My ancient laptop is running Ubuntu netbook remix (soon to be switching to Jolicloud and/or Haiku)
When I can afford it my phone will be running Maemo 5.
One desktop running Ubuntu 9.04, one running Linux Mint 7 (mostly for guests and other people expecting things to "just work"), Fedora 11 on one laptop, PCLinuxOS 2009 on other laptop, and Debian Lenny on other box. I also tend to test out other distros on one box, but mostly these for now, as they are simplest at getting things setup, and arranging network Shares (Samba), and handling media files.
A special mention also to Blag Linux, and gNewsense, both distros built using ONLY Free Software, no binary blobs or non-free firmware at all. Both have run excellently on my hardware, and go to prove just what Free Software is capable of offering us.

Linux Mint 7 Gloria (Gnome) on my old desktop.
It's mainly used by my wife and she loves it.
Anything techy needed doing on it is my job though.
