[lug] Karmic Koala

[Elyse M. Grasso]

For whatever it may be worth, the Intrepid to Jaunty transition really 
sucked for me (weird X window hangs all over the place, and broken 
samba), but Karmic seems to be doing well.

I did a clean install of the OS and my KDE settings this time instead of 
upgrading, which may have helped -- I use Kubuntu, and I think 
Ubuntu was sloppy about the way they handled the KDE 3 to 4 
transition.
