Ubuntu 9.10 beta approaching

[jlacroix at itnewstoday.com]

Hello,

I have two issues I feel are very important but I don't think they are
on the list of milestone bugs. (I should first mention that I'm 100%
Kubuntu everywhere).

The first is bug # 434395. I filed that yesterday, though it may
possibly be the same as bug # 392039, which I haven't seen until now.
Basically my system only gets a successful boot one in ten times, and
restarting results in a stack trace every time.

Finally, neither my laptop or desktop has any kind of boot image during
boot (Kubuntu). Just a bunch of random errors, some similar to bug
#392039.

Please let me know the email address I should contact for these types of
things if it is not  this one and feel free to forward this accordingly.

Rock on!
