Moved to Ubuntu 8.10

[Maurizio De Cecco]

I updated from Ubuntu Studio 8.04 to 8.10 with the update manager.

The update solved a slow wake up from sleep problem (it was a couple of
minutes),
but i got a few other problems:

1) Slow boot: around 4-5 minutes against the 2 minutes on 8.04
2) It does not shut down: it freeze, and the text console says "Shutting
down ALSA", or equivalent.
There is nothing to do other that powering down the machine.
3) Key bindings on the desktop screw up emacs editing badly.
4) Thinkfinger do not work anymore.

Point 2 is the critical one.

Anybody had similar experiences ?

My system is a Thinkpad x61, 2Gb Ram, and i installed the 64 bit studio.

Thanks for any help ..

Maurizio
