I can completely understand the desire to just have things working... It's the reason I went to osx for my main personal machine... of course now that ubuntu is keeping current with stuff (unlike debian had) and there is automatix and beryl. linux is a better "just works" choice after the initial config of a machine. I tried gentoo for a bit but I had 1 too many instances of someone breaking gcc and some imortant part of system didn't compile correctly. requiring me to boot from cd and reinstall some stuff. Beryl gives me the nice expose like effect for app switching and all the eye candy that makes me happy. What did they exactly say was wrong with your system? I thought the core2duo mainboards where pretty stable beasts after all the coreduo revisions. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug -- W.
