  I agree wholeheartedly! After having administered about
a zillion GNU/Linux distros since Slackware 0.9x in the
early 90s, I switched to Ubuntu about two years ago and
haven't looked back since. It is simply the most reliable
and easiest to administer distribution with which I've
ever worked. And coming out with a fix within hours of
the kernel problem popping up says a lot.

  By the way, to work around the problem, all I had to
do was press the <ESC> key at GRUB time and select the
previous kernel. Then I modified /boot/grub/menu.lst.
What's the big deal?

  Keep up the great work, gang.

Cheers
