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