Upgraded Array 4 vs. Fresh Array 5

[Russell Cook]

I' be careful, unfortunately Array 5 didn't seem as good as 4 in 
detecting the wireless card in Dad's PC. The live version did, but only 
when I did a "live-expert" install. The normal array 5 install, i.e. no 
expert,  didnt' detect the wireless card at all.

I also have a problem in his video card flickers severely everytime 
something is drawn on the screen and/or the mouse is moved. This doesn't 
happen in windows. At the moment this means Ubuntu is unusable on his 
machine.  A pity, as it works great on the 3 machines and on VMWare on 
my laptop!

Kind Regards Russ
