This should be self explanatory to anyone who's run Linux on an Macbook Pro and likely with any other trackpad. On top of X's display issues, it has input issues, especially with trackpads. Maybe Wayland will be better but I'm not holding my breath based on what I've read so far. After that, I'm lucky if I get a text login prompt at all. The longest X has stayed stable has been almost 6 months, about 5 years ago. I've had to reinstall from scratch so many times over the last 20 years that I've lost count. My advice to you would be to always request the latest Ubuntu. The power plug was off centered because it fell on it's power input, but it was like $20 USD to fix. I knocked the Ivy Bridge Lemur onto the floor and it survived. I do not know what you mean by 'laptop robustness'. The Ivy Bridge Lemur has a boxer look that you can see with other laptop models. The Skylake and later Lemur's have a very sleek, modern look. > some laptop robustness and touchpad / build quality issuesĬompared to the HP and the Dell I bought the Lemurs handle heat very well, build quality seems very good. Skylake has not been as bad as Sandy Bridge, but still a problem. Skylake has been out more than a year, and Mesa 13 came out recently. I had to put Manjaro on my Skylake Lemur to get Mesa 13 to get all the issues fixed. I do not think it was fixed until Ubuntu 13.04 (It came with 12.04). My Ivy Bridge Lemur would freeze once in a while after resuming. Intel does not get mature launch support in their drivers until well after launch. The only problem I have had is with Intel. AMD cut support for the graphics a month or so after I bought it, and it always ran very hot. Long story short, the Lemur is an excellent little laptop that replaced two large pieces of crap from HP and Dell. Would be nice if it picked up the applications from your plank setup, but not a big deal.> Did you buy from them? What's your experience? Note that docky loads with its own default set of docked applications. Log out (or restart), log in, and enjoy your new dock.(Note: If plank is in the startup list, be sure to remove it.) Click the plus sign and select Docky from the list.In the Applications window, click Startup to bring up your list of startup applications.

Still in System Settings, click All Setings to return to the main settings window.

Now click the plus sign in the popup that appears, type docky and click the green plus sign to add docky to the list.

Click the plank entry in the Watched Processes list, then click the minus sign at the bottom of the panel to remove the entry.

In System Settings, open Tweaks, then click Cerbere (under Applications).Install docky from the Software Center (or from the Docky PPA).I did it since I prefer the fancier animations (since plank is based on docky, it would be wonderful if it included the same functionality, but that's another thread).
