I am having trouble and wondering if it's hardware based.  I'm trying
to install and use both MEPIS 8 beta and Ubuntu 8.10.  MEPIS will
install, but once installed any window opened will crash within 10-15
seconds.  this goes for kded, artsd, and the kicker panel too.  Ubuntu
won't even install, because the installer crashes once the partitioner
starts up, same point every time.  Both will allow the Live CD to run,
but Ubuntu seems to crash a bit even then.  However, MEPIS 7 will run
just fine on this same machine.  My hardware is as follows:

Intel DG965SS Mainboard
4GB DDR2 800 RAM (board supports up to 8 GB)
Pentium 630 Processor
Onboard video
Onboard sound (hi def audio)
Onboard GB LAN

I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem, and if it has
something to do with the hardware not playing well with the kernel or
something.  The fact that MEPIS 7 runs fine is only adding to the puzzle.
