That would be it as for testing Dapper. Why does linuces always have to be so buggy? Why do devs think users reports will stand for real pre-release testing? It doesn't matter this one is beta - last stable 'Breezy' was as bad. (But still best of all the other linuces I've ever tried :). Which only proves how bad it is). I have to use linux.
