yep. Same here, a laptop with Edgy, upgraded w/no problems,
(system76laptop btw, really happy with that machine, suspend/hibernate,
wireless,sound etc. All work as they should) and my workstation, which I
did a fresh install 'cause I wanted to repartition some stuff. 

Can't get  compiz running on the workstation, due to it's old nvidia
card I think, but I have a newer one on the way now. :)


Very impressed with Feisty. Lots of little things, as well as the big
ones. Like, if you don't have dia installed, type dia in a term, and you
get


jim at dragon:~$ dia
The program 'dia' can be found in the following packages:
 * dia
 * dia-gnome
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
bash: dia: command not found


neat!
