I've Googled this extensively and can't seem to find an answer. Where can I find a plain vanilla version of Ubuntu (or anything related) that uses GNOME 2.x? It seems to me like the developers of Ubuntu have decided to make it as easy as possible for grandma to use the OS, but they keep making it harder for power users.
I don't mind if its an old version, but it needs to be a plain vanilla GNOME 2.x. I'm planning on forking it for internal use in my small software company.
The problem with 10.04 is they've added all sorts of goofy modifications that make the os much worse than regular gnome. For example, if you remove the little mail icon it also removes the volume and time icons as well. – user114558 – 2012-03-19T14:50:33.143
