Nope. I run CentOS on the "server" and Elementary on the laptop.
What's the issue you speak of? |

we used to use CentOS at work, then we switched to Scientific Linux
my issue is this stupid openjdk-7-jre-headless thing nothing I found on-line helps and I made a report at ubuntu with no luck. last time I had it, the only 'fix' was upgrading from 14.04 to 14.10. The following packages will be upgraded:
openjdk-7-jre-headless 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B/39.6 MB of archives. After this operation, 8,192 B disk space will be freed.

Ah, this is the systemd version. We're a RedHat shop which is why I run CentOS. |

I ran 15.04 briefly in beta because my laptop was pretty new and Debian Wheezy didn't recognize most of my hardware and caused constant probs. Not a huge fan of dealing w/ Debian's testing or SID distros, and generally find Ubuntu's beta's easier to deal with.
Jessie just released a week ago, and I spent last night installing on my laptop. So far, so good. My NAS is running OMV (based on Wheezy) and will for the foreseeable future. |

so far, okay with 15.04 (Vivid)
known issues still exist - no audio control from keyboard enabled(equipped) devices - audio is a gamble. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The ALSA crew just cant get it's shit together. there are a few other issues i've encountered, but they're not consistent. I can do what I want for the most part, but am a bit skittish to deviate from what I have. I've seen an update wipe out my ability to function "normally" |

That's been my general experience overall with Linux on the desktop. I'm sure it's gotten better over the years but it's a real PITA when things don't go right.
The last thing the average user wants to do is sit at a terminal window trying to recompile crap to make it work. |

I honestly think it's one of the biggest issues keeping Linux from becoming more main-stream. IMHO, developers are spending too much time working on cosmetics when they should be focusing on functionality. |

It's amusing that everyone I know who uses Linux as a desktop solution winds up spending all their time in a terminal windows anyways because that's what they prefer. Even if they were given a functional GUI that did everything they needed to do they would still refuse to use it. |
