What I learned

  • Gnome 3 is actually quite nice, I think I prefer it over Unity. Only if it weren’t so buggy. And had better multihead support.
  • Unity has some pretty nice touches as well. Like the ALT+TAB’ing into a specific window of an app.
  • Even the propriety Catalyst fglrx driver can’t properly drive a 3-head 6400×1440/1200 setup when compositing is enabled. It works just fine in Windows.
  • But Windows 7′s multimonitor behaviour is insane as well.
  • I should probably get a Mac.
  • Tiling window managers are worth a try.
