Got Hoary working with your instructions - thanks :-) There seems to be
a problem with icons. Every directory and file is using the same icon -
one depicting a sheet of paper - with the exeption of picture files,
which have the normal thumbnail picture.

The Evolution icon in the panel doesn't work. Maybe this has something
to do with the fact that I saved my /home partition from the Warty
installation and there's some sort of version conflict taking place with
Evolution?

Nothing dramatic so far though (first fifteen minutes :) - Evolution,
Firefox, OO Writer and gThumb seem to work and I can use the files in
the saved /home partition. I'll stick to Hoary so far and study
further :-)
