I've been busy recently, and probably won't be able to test the Ubuntu build right away. I only have spare CD-Rs right now, but the download page says that the daily build of Quetzal is currently too large to burn to CD.

I'll keep checking, and once I have a spare USB drive or some DVD-Rs, or the build can fit on a CD-R, I'll run the test. Just to check though, will booting into a Live session in RAM be valid, or do I need install the build to hard-disk to reduce the variables involved? Although I won't have the proprietary NVIDIA driver in the Live session, I should still be able to tell if the GPU is being used . If I have to install, it just may take a little longer. I'll have to shuffle some partitions around.

Anyways, thanks for the suggestions, and I'll try to run that test ASAP.
