Hmm, like Marcus I've not had many problems at all, with both upgrades
and fresh installs.

I have a few minor niggles, like 1 PC that has the Clock applet crash
every day (different times of day though). I also don't yet know how
to use the grub2 prompt when the menu can't be read!


Cofion,
Neil.
