I now have Hardy... been having 'fun' so far though - lots of xorg and
xserver dependency/conflict problems during the upgrade to start with. I
had to uninstall the nvidia-glx-new package, upgrade packages (xorg-core
installed at this point) then re-install.

Then when I rebooted and logged in I got a plethora of 'crash detected'
reports plus dozens for the broken dependencies on the upgrade.

Unsurprisingly I can't enable desktop effects now as although the nvidia
driver is enabled it doesn't seem to be working - glxgears don't run etc.

This isn't a plea for help, I shall sort the problems out and log bugs
if I manage to glean any information which would help a poor developer.
It may be that I have a 3rd party repository enabled that I shouldn't have.
