I personally am a linux, cnc, electronics and machining newbie and lurk here and other places in "sponge mode". I ran through many issues with using old computer boxes with Ubuntu. Stuart's method struck me right away as a route to getting around several video problems I have had. One of my first successfull installs followed roughly Stuart's method as coached by SWP on IRC. Based on both of your comments, it would be nice to have have the download page of the Linuxcnc.org site point first to a wiki which offers the choice of "one stop shopping" aka the liveCD or the "round to it" method using vanilla Ubuntu The page can then prominently display the pro's and cons of each approach.
