A couple of minor breaks, nothing to cry over. Just Broken 3D till I
added a few lines into xorg.conf and I had to install some python
thing to do the upgrade properly (speaking of which I _HIGHLY_
recommend that you do the upgrade the way they suggest. ie don't hand
modify the sources.list)
The more custom your machine the more breaks you'll get, no distro is
immune from that.
If you have RAID, custom kernel and other such beasties I suggest you
do the research first.
