Nice try. I'm Unix based.
So Am I . . .

Why haven't you upgraded to Hardy?


I did, but with mixed results. I was using the Turboprint driver for the
Canon 5000. That doesn't work any more because of an obsoleted
dependency. I don't want to pay again for the new version, 2+ something.

The majority of my self installed executables got wiped out in the
upgrade, including the Linux version of rx320. I had to recompile. When
I did the upgrade, I didn't realize so much was going to be overwritten.

It's a good thing I had a separate partition called /store that didn't
get changed. All my downloads live there. My /home partition is never
formatted either.

I have no machine control running on this box, it's strictly a surfer.
The edit beast in the garage upgraded uneventfully, and it has a lot of
custom stuff (10 X 10 Envy 24 soundcard, etc.), but that's a different
kernel (Ubuntu Studio).
