Ubuntu 9.04 is running really, really well on this Dell laptop. So far, I’ve only had to un-blacklist my video card to get Visual Effects (Compiz Fusion) working and install one deprecated bluetooth package to get my mouse working. The lack of pre-installed Skype is worrisome. It’s not in the repositories, and 9.04 isn’t listed as compatible on Skype’s page. I’m hoping that this is resolved before 9.10 is released.

Suspend and hibernate modes work like a charm on this Dell, though.

Also, in nerd news, I think I might be crazy:
– LiveJournal
– Blogger
– Twitter
– DeviantArt
– Facebook
– Writery web page
– Writery Google Group

There’s a reason that I have a hard time keeping up. Think I’m going to stop the cross-posting via Twitter, too.
