Installed today and hats off for the easy wifi setup!
Dell Vostro 1000 ATI Xpress and 2GB (Gnome)
Everything else is great but...
Watching video with any media player (be it VLC, M PLayer, anything) is awful. It's viewable but, the video looks a bit pixelated and is choppy as well. I am using the ATI restricted driver. This is odd since Gutsy didn't do this. This happen whether Compiz is off or on (I sometimes use it in the halfway settings). Yes, this is no video demon laptop but again, Gutsy would allow excellent video playback.
Apart from the Error 29 with GoogleEarth (man, GoogleEarth has always been a PIA with Ubuntu).
Any help appreciated on this and again I say Thank You to all at Ubuntu!!
