Sebastien, I updated to Feisty yesterday - so far, so good. I haven't vigorously tested, but all seems fine. When I upgraded, I went to the 64-bit version, whereas on Edgy I was using the 32-bit one. However, it has been a month or so since I last had the panel "hang" problem - I think some normal update must have fixed it for me.
