I'm thinking of upgrading several machines.
For my basic purposes (web browsing, email, listening to music, irc'ing, compiling the occasional program etc) 8.04 has been good to me since I upgraded to it back in the alpha phase. The only real showstopper I ever saw was some wacky gnome-settings-daemon/xrandr/compiz-related bug which didn't affect me hugely since I'm using fluxbox as my window manager. I'm pretty sure that one was resolved before the final release was pushed out though. There was even some annoying things that I couldn't fix in previous versions that are sorted now without me having to do anything (for some reason the NVIDIA driver didn't work properly for me in gutsy). -- dave. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
