Sadly, I haven't encountered these problems (yet). We'll soon see. However, I rarely jump into the x.10 Ubuntu versions and prefers the x.04 versions because I have never experienced crashes with those builds since. Case in point, I got crashes on previous 5.10, 6.10, 7.10, and 8.10 Ubuntus and none so far on the x.04 versions.
