=======================
Testing Intrepid Alpha4 desktop
=======================
When booting from the CD, first appears one progressing bar, then two, and
then three.

Once booted into this Alpha4 release of Intrepid everything seems normal.
Apparently all the hardware was well detected and I am connected to the
Internet without problems through the wireless card.

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.26-5-generic #1 SMP Sun Aug 10 20:30:28 UTC 2008 i686
GNU/Linux
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

=======================
Testing Intrepid Alpha5 desktop
=======================
The system does not detect my USB external mouse. The touchpad mouse is
detected and works fine though.

The external mouse was detected after being disconnected and reinserted,
this did not append with Alpha4 in which the mouse was detected directly..

The rest of the hardware seems fine.

When booting the system, the multiple progressive bars did not appear any
more.

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.27-2-generic #1 SMP Thu Aug 28 17:20:02 UTC 2008 i686

=================
Regarding Hardy Heron
=================
When working under the 2.6.24-19-generic kernel sometimes suddenly my laptop
crash. It is like a shutdown, the screen goes totally black and I cannot
login into the system even remotely. Even that the power led is still
indicating that the laptop is ON.

This has happened to me three times, the first time was few days ago after
the last security update. Now I am working again under the 2.6.24-18-generic
kernel.
I am not totally sure that if it is a kernel issue, but at least that crash
has happened only under the 2.6.24-19-generic kernel.

My Laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T60.

Best regards
