i wouldnt expect and wouldnt suggest to any "average non-geek" to run a
unstable version of a OS as well as i would expect testers to read the
warnings in the config files they modify and to file bugs if something
is wrong, so the people working on a package can fix it for the
"non-geek" users that will use the OS later when its released to prevent
them from having to touch config files.

thats the nature of a beta release, the above applies here as well.
please file bugs.
