Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Libre Icons in Ubuntu disappear after loading file

Yes you might have issues with a Beta 4.2.x.x.
I just - this afternoon - replaced 4.0.6 with 4.1.4 and will be testing 
it out for a bit.

I started with 9.04 or 9.10, kept 10.04 LTS till 12.04 LTS came out.  I 
tried to update to 11.xx but has issues that ended up being 11.xx issues 
with my on-board video card that 10.04 did not have.  I found out about 
that when I went to 12.04 and the same problem was there, but went away 
with a upgrade from NVIDIA on-mother-board to NVIDIA PCIe-card.

I have upgraded - not clean install - before on a laptop, but things 
keep being kept on the drive that is no longer needed.  The clean 
install from 10.04 to 12.04 reduced the drive space of everything 
installed in the root folders other than "/home" by over 50 GB that the 
11.04 to 12.04 upgrading without a clean install.  I did this on a 
laptop.  So anytime I "upgrade" it needs to be a clean install.  The 
problem with that is I keep forgetting all these little things like the 
needed files to be able to lay "protected" DVDs on my Ubuntu desktop and 
a lot of other "stuff" that I need to get my work done.  Took a few 
weeks to install everything [or remembering what is needed to be 
installed] that I had on my previous version of Ubuntu.

Once I install the OS, then I have to install MATE all over again and 
all of the tweaks for that desktop environment.  Also the time to 
install all of the packages I use on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.  
When I installed 12.04 on a new drive, after the old one failed, it took 
over 16 hours to install the OS, MATE, and all of the packages, less all 
of the tweaks and such I keep forgetting to install till I need them.  
That is with a semi-fast quad processor desktop.  It takes much more on 
my slower dual core desktop I dual boot with Win7.
