I'm up and running as well.  I'm currently using the AMD64 Desktop
version (couldn't get SS to install on the AMD64 Server version for
some unknown reason), but I'm thinking of reimaging with the i386
Desktop version.  I haven't found a way to call up a remote Gnome
session after reboot if the server is headless (I can SSH in and run
CLI terminal sessions, but I have to admit I like the option of running
Synaptic and other GUI utilities).  I've tried VNC solutions like
TightVNC, but to no avail.  Apparently, nxserver will let me init a
Gnome session, but it doesn't have a Debian AMD64 version, only i386
(there are workarounds, but may have unintended consequences).

If any Linux/Ubuntu gurus have any ideas on how to set up a Gnome
session on a headless box after reboot (where root is the only account
working), I'd appreciate it.  Otherwise, I'll go to i386 and try that. 
One benefit, I guess: it'll let me do some benchmarking on library
scans/rebuilds to see whether SS performs differently under the two
Ubuntu builds.
