I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04 and got the myriad of lockup problems... which seemed to be my ide hd weren't being read.
Have just done a clean install of Kubuntu 8.04, and am having several problems...
1: my ide hard drives are labeled sda, sdc, and sdd... huh?
2: reading directories or folders are slow... painfully. I can make a coffee while waiting for ls to run.
3. while reading some directories, whether in a filemanager(dolphin etc) or via terminal I get an
Input/output error
I'm not sure where to start looking for problems as my hd seem to be okay (fdisk)
I'm just about ready to go back to 7.10, but many people who return are then complaining the problems don't seem to go away. Can 8.04 stuff up your hardware... that easily?
