Heh. Sure. It just does auto-updates to the release versions that
break things.
Fedora 11 shipped a bit after Jaunty and caught a few more of the
Intel update bits, but still not "the whole deal" the way Karmic has.
Karmic is what us Intel video guys have needed for a while now.
Jaunty really should have been held back a couple months same as
Dapper was. A couple months more and they'd have been on kernel
2.6.29 instead of .28, and had more of the Intel bits. That also
would have allowed ATI to catch up to what xorg was doing...as it was,
Jaunty shipped with the ATI proprietary drivers totally borked and
Intel almost as screwed. Big mistake.
Ubuntu really needs to be a bit more flexible on the whole "six
months" thing or this is going to happen again eventually. Karmic is,
fortunately, going to hit right on a "sweet spot".
