Is there any way to update the Unity (dash, launcher, etc.) in Ubuntu 11.04? For example could I make it what Ubuntu 11.10 has? (The dash contains icons for applications, places, etc at the bottom).

If this is possible, please say how I can do it.. Thanks in advance!

Edit

As many of you have asked/suggested to upgrade to 11.10, I cannot do this currently as my 3G modem does not work with Ubuntu 11.10 (I tested this on 2 computers with the same result) and this modem is my only means to connect to the internet. So I guess I have to wait until 12.04 comes out.. :(

This has been covered before I think (though the other question was a bit different and never had an accepted answer), and the answer is no, because updating Unity requires updating other libraries which could break your system. Your best bet is to upgrade to 11.10 or 12.04 (when it comes out).

Not the best choice to update to 11.04. My experience showed that 11.04 behaves with my Sony VAIO S11. the best, I had a lot of incidents on 11.10, starting from network and ending the display. Also, I found that Unity is more stable on 11.04 (OMG)
