Hello, Stephen.
Upgraded my laptop from 7.10 to 8.04 OK, except for 100% CPU problem
with "evolution-data-server", which I fixed after a bit of Googling by
disabling:
System/Preference/Sessions/Startup Programs/Evolution Alarm Notifier
I had also disabled 'Tracker' under 7.10 because it is a resource hog!

Automatically installed fwcutter + the Broadcom firmware on my laptop.
Noty test ed that it works yet, though =- Hmm...
Crashed and burned trying to upgrade one of our 6.06.1 LTS servers
because the repo's were too busy by then ;-)
Tony.
