I haven't been sure if it was the upgrade as much as the number of applications I have loaded on my system. I decided to try and load as much as I could onto my system , because I intend to upgrade my laptop, to a dual core, before I installed a system permanently on the new laptop. I now know I 'experiment' to much to have a permanent stable system. but being new to linux and ubuntu I wanted to learn as much as quickly as possible. The 'hard way' can make learning both necessary, and memorable. I hadn't done anything with apparmor, or tried to install SELinux - yet. I haven't been able to connect with wireless, in hardy, but I got another automatic dist-upgrade from alpha5-6 using ethernet. Cupsys still seem to fail for the same reason. I have some kde programs, and unauthenticated packages, but in var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log the packages seemed to be ones that depended on cupsys, not the reverse. I have a hardya6 alternate CD, and a copy of gutsy I'm building with a similar application load in an effort to try and solve the problem by elimination. I only have Windows at all, for the sake of a canon printer. The main system I use is still the pre upgrade Gutsy I had in a root tar file. I haven't been switching between systems too often, because I've been foldingathome,(I discovered that when I went looking for a solution to my clock or server failing.) and begrudge the hour or few getting nowhere.
I know here is a difference between kubuntu and ubuntu upgrades. but not how it would it affect automatic upgrades on xclient-script alternate or any other upgrades.
I'm spending too much space writing what I don't know. I'll update if I learn anything constructive.
