Second hand info, but my mate Graeme installed it last night. He hated it
too.  His comments were: graphics were awful, no support for mp3s
out-of-the-box (xmms is crippled), and no support for playing mpegs.

I think there were other gripes, but those were the main ones.

If I had a barge-pole I wouldn't, ya know?

Paul.
