Feisty is installed now. fairly clean process for first-time upgrade tool. my timing in impeccable, stuck halfway between linux kernels waiting for restricted modules to come on line.....looks like they are now...so my fglrx will get fixed today....then off to my lightscribe...kmymoney...and one or two other things I have been waiting for fixes and feature upgrades to. One thing I do note is that knetworkmanger starts after korn, kweather, and akregator, causing annoying network connectivity banners to flash when loggin in.
