Hello all.
Well, I've decided to give 9.10 a whirl and so far, it's been
interesting.
At the moment, hibernate has stopped working, which I used to find very
useful and which worked perfectly in 9.04.. Just wondered if anyone else
has given 9.10 a try and if so, how are they finding it? (Also, if you
have any ideas about the hibernate thing, I'm open to suggestions!)

Have you managed to access any Windows shares with it? I can't - either XP
or Windows 7. 9.04 accesses XP and Windows 7 final shares OK - but not
Windows 7RC shares...

Not had a chance to upgrade yet going to start it off tommorow at some
point. Is 9.10 browner? :P

I've been using it right from the beta, the developers seem a bit hasty, I
think we are still looking at a release candidate in reality. Will be
interesting to see how many updates there are in the next weeks. I've not
tried hibernation myself, will do and see what happens!
Got 9.10 server on a compaq dl360 g1 in the front room. Having a play with
the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud.

Hmm, I was going to set my workshop PC to upgrade sometime today... I
think I'll wait a few days if there are still some problems. Though,
to be honest, I haven't ever used hibernate and it may be simply a
hardware specific bug in that it would work fine on my PC (EMachines
1.7ghz AthlonXP - forget how much RAM but not quite 1gb with an 80gb
HDD).

I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 on my Desktop using the built in
upgrader. I left it running overnight and now when it boots into
2.6.31-14-generic it reboots before getting to X, I tried it in
recovery mode and it kernel panics and reboots. I have now managed to
get it running in the older 2.6.28-15-generic kernel, after a few
attempts at getting X started it now appears to get gdm running okay.
However my sound card appears to have stopped working. I haven't
tested anything else yet.I'm copying all the stuff off my desktop in
case I decide to wipe it and try a fresh install.

9.10 is definitely a bit flaky on older machines. Best to grab the iso
and try live first is my experience here.

Hi Dave,
I've just tested hibernate on my laptop (a Dell D420) and it seems to work
ok. Maybe you could supply some info about the errors you're getting with
it?
Also, you could try using suspend instead of hibernate. It's a lot faster to
suspend than hibernate and they've really improved the recovery time in
9.10. Before it took a few seconds to get X back on the screen but now it's
literally ready for me before I've finished opening the lid!
