If 10.10 doesnot support.... I need to upgrade to 11.04. But the User interface is no so good.

You can use Ubuntu Classic and it will look EXACTLY the same as Maverick......

In 11.04, you can switch to the old Ubuntu Classic, which is Gnome 2 desktop (like in 9.10).
In coming 11.10, you'll have only Unity (new user interface). To keep Gnome 2 desktop 6 month more, you will have to switch to Linux Mint (don't know what will be Linux Mint 11.04).
Else you could try Lubuntu, Xubuntu or Kubuntu which are more classic than Unity.
