Ubuntu Wish Lists revisited

I am currently in the process of downloading YDL 5.0 Cell for Playstation 3.

Previously I was working my way to near perfect functionality with Ubuntu 7.10, which although slow, I must say it highly user-friendly on the PS3. Some hangups with getting the resolution working but thanks to other diligent Ubuntu users, I got it working on my 47" LCD just fine.

However the upgrade process to Hardy Heron 8.04 completely killed my install. It turns out that kboot (OTHEROS.BLD for the fans) cannot load Hardy Heron.

Needless to say, Ubuntu being my favorite Linux distro I was highly disappointed yet again.

At this point I'm not giving up on Ubuntu, but I would like to know why it is that certain functionality cannot be created within an otherwise powerful *nix OS.

OS X can run Video chat without problems, and windows can run an S-Video TV-Out port.

As a future wish, I'm hoping that da boyz an' gals at Cannonical will be getting with the program and making some necessary adjustments to their ports and software drivers.

Untill then, Ubuntu won't be ready for the big leagues.

Which saddens me to no end, but I'll be waiting and posting more.
