Well everyone, its been a few days. Has anyone upgraded to 9.04 yet, if so what has your experience been like so far?<br><br>I've had both a good and not so good experience so far. <br><br>I upgraded an old Dell Inspiron laptop to the pre-release version and it had absolutely no problems. It now boots faster and runs well.<br><br>I attempted to upgrade my Desktop, which is a 64-bit AMD dual-core with an ATI X1600 video card. It wasn't a good experience. The freely available ATI drivers dropped support for this video card, therefore after the successfull upgrade my display was very very slow. I searched for resolutions and tried several things to no avail. By the end of my attempts my xorg.conf file was so unrecognizable that I just gave up on it. I performed a backup of my home directory then re-installed from scratch.<br><br>After the fresh install everything was working perfectly. The speed of my display was fine so I performed my restore. Everything was fine until I started to notice that features of my Firefox seemed strange. No Flash was working so I attempted to install the plugin. It kept failing regardeless of which one I attempted to install. Then for some unknown reason the scrolling in Firefox got real "choppy". I didn't know what I did to cause that, so I just re-installed once again.<br><br>One good thing about all of this is that I am getting better at setting up my printer/scanner and CUPS server!<br><br><div>Doooh<br> </div><br /><hr />Tell the whole story with photos, right from your Messenger window. <a href='http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9650732' target='_new'>Learn how!</a></body>
