I've had amazing luck with lucid. Running Dell E6500 with NVDIA Quatro NVS 160M. <div>A notification came up asking if I wanted to update Ubuntu to the latest. I haven't had much luck and usually just reinstall the OS, but I decided to give it a shot. I clicked "yes" and waited for the worse.</div>

</div>So far I had good luck with AMD 64 bits Lucid version, and I gradually<br>
got every else to work well since I had been using Mandriva for a long<br>
time. Latest Mandriva kernel update it hose the whole /home directory<br>
so bad, so I goes it Fedora 12 64 bits version and it will my whole HD<br>
after three days of using it. Now I had been using Ubuntu for last week<br>
or so and so far so good.<br>
