I got a little curious when I read this. I am using Ubuntu GNOME and do
not have any problems with GNOME other than that the latest GNOME
updates (of GNOME) take a little while to be made available. I have had

when you use the term "stable distribution" either? Are you talking
Debian stable, or would Fedora qualify in this regard?
