I'd have to say that I was less than pleased with the Hardy Heron upgrade. I had a great deal of problem with xorg.conf and my Nvidia video card. EnvyNG wouldn't run in GUI but it seemed to run in CLI. But every time I'd try to set by Nvidia settings I couldn't get an X window environment on the next boot. And when I'd reconfig xorg.conf then I'd lose my Nvidia settings.
I was extremely disappointed with the installation of FireFox 3.0 beta with Hardy Heron. If you're going to put out what appears to be a GA version of Kubuntu don't throw in a beta program with it.
I've finally solved most of my problems. I reinstalled 7.10. Of course that went a little less than smooth since running upgrades on everything that had already been upgraded before I went to 8.04 just crashed and burned leaving me with a File 15 error in Grub.
Next time I'll make sure I image my 7.10 install before considering the upgrade.
But thanks to all to being here to help.

The first time I went back to 7.10 I ran all the automatic upgrades and it crashed and burned. So I did it again and did the upgrades a few at a time. And did partimage backups in between those. I may try the Hardy Heron upgrade in a couple of months but will definitely backup my current configuration before doing so.
