Kubuntu Deleted, Mepis Reinstalled

Kubuntu get deleted, Mepis Reinstalled
I have two computers, one is my Main computer, my other is my test computer. Kubuntu was running flawless for over a month, and was on my main box. I was running Mepis on my Test box (i like to keep an eye on it and see if any goodies pop up .

But back to the story. Kubuntu, was running great and very stable, until last thursdays update. Whatever they did totally f-ed konqueror, it is very unstable. Tried rebuilding it a few different ways and still the same issue. Many other users are complaining about the same exact issue (signal 11, with the same exact back trace) so i know its not just me.

The main reason i switched to Kubuntu was it out of the box Nvidia 6600gt support (which i could never get working under mepis). Now with this new konqueror bug in kubuntu i could not think of a way to fix it so i decided, im gonna try Mepis again. After scoping these boards, i found something i did not ever attempt before to resolve my Mepis Nvidia Woes, Disableing Twinview. Duh! So i comment all the Twinview lines out of xfree config, and BAM, 6600GT on MEPIS!!!

So i put Kubuntu on the Beta Box, annd it will probably stay there as i do not trust Kubuntu's dev's, i think they got a little trigger happy. Once they fix this bug and it stays bug free for 3 months, ill consider putting it on my main box. And by bug free i mean bugs that serious affect the system as a whole.

So maybe i got bit in the ass by being too bleeding edge with Kubuntu.

Another thing i have noticed, ive found that Xfree takes about half the cpu resources as Xorg did. I dont know if this is because of Kubuntus implementation or Xorg itself. So i do not miss xorg at all. Kde 3.4 on the other hand i will miss greatly

So as Kubuntu had my "Just Works" certification, it lost it last thursday. It needs to be polished and i wont run it for at least another 3 months of beta testing.
