2011-05-26 Xubuntu 11.04

Upgrading my old iBook to Xubuntu 11.04 after not having used it for many months was no problem!

Out of curiosity I installed *Unity* only to be told that my hardware to was too lame to run it. Installing it had the unfortunate side-effect of getting the *Nautilus* file manager again. Thus, whenever I started a session, the blue Xfce session manager (gdm?) background would be replaced by the rust brown background used by Nautilus for a second, until it was again replaced by the blue background of the Xfce file manager *Thunar*. I went back to my old post, 2010-07-24 Ubuntu to Xubuntu. I ended up removing `nautilus` and some dependencies, verified that `sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop` had nothing to remove and ran `sudo apt-get autoremove`. Let’s restart and check. πŸ˜„
