    I just installed it a short while ago... and I love it! It works better than Feisty (so far), and the built-in effects are definitely a bonus.

    Rock,

    Were you able to setup audio correctly? Just installed 7.10 on my V3000Z and don't have sound. Other than that there doesn't seem to be any major hiccups.

    Did you guys resize your NTFS partitions, or do clean installs?

    Currently, no luck yet. I download the x86, and not very stable to get to usual boot up running. Wander why it ask me the user name even I boot from CD.

    I didn't make a clean install. I had my 7.04 on machine. Will download again, and see if error still there.

    This would not be a Ubuntu Gutsy problem, it is a problem with firefox, probably incompatibility of version for extentions and addons and the version of firefox installed.

    Try searching synaptic for restricted, and have it install the version of your kernel.

    (You can find the version of your kernel by typing the code below into a terminal)

    Code:
    uname -r
