Well done!!

Tried the live CD version. Two things to report:

First the good news:
Wireless finally works on my Sony Vaio SRX 87P!! Wohoo! It was detected
and comes up in network-admin where I can manually configure it. 
Working great now.
The bug that I raised:
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6279
can be closed now?

The bad news.
Display still comes up in 800x600 instead of 1024x768 as still array 5.
What is worse is that the system kind of thinks that it is running in
1024x768 mode because my mouse clicks are way off. Right clicking on
the desktop to bring up the context menu results in the menu coming up
not where I clicked but way to the right. Needless to say, the mouse is
quite useless and I can't use any of the menus. Managed to bring up the
terminal and plugged in the horizsync and vertrefresh in xorg.conf and
restarted X. Everything works great now. Hopefully this will be fixed
before final release.

I should also add tjat I have been using hoary on my desktop at home
and at work and have been working great. I tested the array 6 live  CD
on the machine at work and everything seems ok. This is by far the most
polished distribution till date. I used to work on FC3. Hoary is my
choice now. Keep up the good work!
