When I upgraded to feisty, i installed an Nvidia 7600GT dual-head card and
wanted to get 3 monitors working (using an existing ATI card). While
trying to get Twinview and Xinerama to play nicely, i had a few funny

I don't know how things go in the Ubuntu world, but doing a dist-upgrade
instead of a regular upgrade makes a big difference with Debian.
I'm still getting used to the new Etch. Upgrading there was big but it worked
very well. Depending on how long it had been since installing and how much

Boy, I hope this goes well. I would so love to see some major Linux

Yeah, go for it. I didn't bother when I had FC6 running on my main
machine, because I couldn't get fglrx to work. Turns out, fglrx
doesn't work with my card, but the radeon driver works great with
Beryl.
When it's as easy as 'aptitude install beryl emerald-themes', then

I'm experiencing two problems on Feisty right now:
1) After a while, automount just stops working altogether. A reboot
fixes it. Not cool, seeing as how, at all times, I am carrying no

2) GIMP randomly exits. I can't recall an instance when it exited
