New Ubuntu almost kills 1, so far.

As the resident linux guy in the lab, I have to deal with a few problems. However, today when i piloted the new Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex update on one of the machines, I was a little lost. Only for a bit, but it was annoying enough.

After a flawless install, I restarted. Then nothing. The machine hung after running a few boot scripts. After a couple reboots, I got it into a terminal and found out that the new install messed up my X configuration. Simple but annoying. After a few tweaks, up and running. It's very nice.

I got home and upgraded. No problem here. No annoying X misconfiguration or hanging boot. But I'd give it a couple months if you're uncomfortable with making changes to xorg.conf.
