I ran the upgrade process from Gutsy and it ran with no problems. When the PC rebooted I didn't get the the graphical login. Logging into the console I tried startx, but that got errors until I changed the driver back from nv from nvidia. Then I could run KDE. At least I can set high scan rates that were not available before.
Rebooting again still got no login screen. Whatever it was doing the monitor could not sync to it. So I'm stuck with console login and startx for now. I've not tried reconfiguring from scratch yet.
Within KDE I have a couple of issues. I'm getting no sound at all, but no errors when I play in Amarok. Could this be related to Pulse Audio?
Also the KDE MediaManager is not running, so I don't see storage media in Konqueror.
Most applications seem to be working, but lack of sound is a serious handicap.
I'll give this upgrade 8/10 so far.
