My experience was Feisty Herd 5, maybe the next step resolved bugs. At this point, I'll check out the release on the 19th. <div>On 4/10/07, Gavin McCullagh <<a href="mailto:gmccullagh@gmail.com">gmccullagh@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Hi, On Tue, 10 Apr 2007, Scott Ledyard wrote: > Yikes!

I guess I should be specific and say that I've had very positive experiences of it over the past week in Feisty (7.04 beta) but prior to that I tried to use it in edgy and it was a shambles.  It seems to have improved substantially now though.  Nice clean support for WPA, lets you pick which wifi network from those available and the wired connection (if present).  It's very laptop/desktop oriented, but that's what it's for, servers should probably be using /etc/network/interfaces.
