Well, not as bumpy as I expected it to be. Right now I switched to GNOME 
because I did some mismatch in my KDE desktop with transparency and I can't 
read my screen (wholly my fault !), but everything works fine for me since 4 
days. Of course, you should eventually update your system more often as some 
packages are hold behind every now and then, but I can work as usual.

But of course, don't do this on a productive system unless you like to take 
risks :-) (Which I definitely do with Ubuntu/Kubuntu on my laptop, running it 
since Hoary Hedgehog and very often early Alpha versions). My desktop runs 
Dapper quietly, but this is my "emergency work" machine, I spend 98% of my 
time on the laptop.

Greets, Myriam
