Worked for me!  The Ubuntu box here now appears to be the most stable of the 
lot, with the exception of a venerable Debian Sarge box, belonging to my 
brother.  

I never really got on with Debian based distros (I started with Red Hat) until 
I tried Ubuntu - I was curious after all the hype.  It's really very good, if 
a little "simplified".  I still prefer RPM, however....
