However, Linux 2.6.24-12-generic works flawlessly even with madwifi and nvidia. The update process is painless, and my experience is that the system is faster and consumes less RAM. I installed also Firefox3 in the process, and I just can't believe firefox is able to run so fast. Linux 2.6.24-12-386 (which seems to be the default version in Hardy) does not boot my computer.

My system has been working flawless since alpha4. I didn't even experience a problem that some testers did with the update on alpha 6 and libc6. The new features are awesome, WUBI is great, virtual manager is nice, though I still like virtualbox a bit better for now. The updated GNOME and the glassy look is nice. If the improvements keep coming every 6 months like they have been since WARTY, I'll bet by 10.04 Canonical will have a windows killer that every one will want! 10.4 will be the most significant release ever to me just because it's close enough to call the inverse of WARTY 4.10 Hardy is a party!

Now, mostly everything is going ok. Had a problem with tracker today. It was taking up about a gig of ram. Maybe a rabid malloc! If I get time i will dig into it.
