Hey Neil: I did do exactly that yesterday. It did not solve my problem, however. I had to re-install Ubuntu 8.10 on a separate hard drive & upgrade to Karmic Koala. I can't use Ubuntu One Music Store now because I am afraid to upgrade this newer Ubuntu install to Lynx because I don't want a repeat of the same bug. I even tried just installing kubuntu- desktop at the command line & though it did install kubuntu desktop, it would not let me sign in under my usual name & password, so now I have a useless operating system with a kubuntu desktop that I can't sign into. I guess I'll end up having to delete that whole partition unless I can fix this bug.
