I really do not think this release is as good as 7.04. I like the new
features, but to many important things going on without warning.
Screen resolution going nuts when turn off and then back on at times
Firefox going dark without warning and requiring a force quit or kill
When i hibernate and come back on the screen has a shadow box in the
lower right screen
They may be working on these problems, not sure.
