Remarks about upgrade:

I was able to do a Kubuntu upgrade on Thursday night, but am 
experiencing issues on my Toshiba laptop which has only 256Mb of RAM, 
though this ran acceptably with Hardy-8.04. I suspect low RAM is part of 
it, but am getting the following problems:
1) Random restarts  of X server forcing new login
2) Display monitor kicks in to tell me of a new connection.
3) Full boot is so long (RAM?) that the wireless connection doesn't 
activate on its own, must click on the ath0 connection to get bars.
4) Have just switched down to 800/600 resolution to see if that 
mitigates the monitor/xserver issues at all.
