I've enabled the backports repository, so I'll see if I can get a good balance from "stable" video and fresh software - without an update to x.org for a while. It seems to work alright with 7.0<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('2189','MrCorey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('2189','MrCorey','All in good fun.I decided to go the route of Debian with less work - Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.

I still think that it would be less work to replace Windows than it would be to secure your system against attack from your OS producer. Of course, I'd be a happier camper if I could just replace my ATI video card with an NVidia.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('2188','MrCorey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('2188','MrCorey','Oh no, hari, I didn\'t miss your point.
