Right, I'm a bit hot headed now so bear with me: I've just shut down my laptop, which was applying Hardy's upgrades (152 IIRC), because as soon as it started to actually install the packages my desktop completely locked up. I put up with it for about *30 f****** minutes* until I decided I actually needed to get some work done instead of watching the disk access led blinking while kcryptd did it's stuff. Come on guys! Come on! I replaced openSUSE 10.3 which also had luks encryption and was a whole lot more responsive with Hardy to give it a shot. Yeah, I know this is beta software, but we're talking about a freaking LTS. How did this get past QA? You're one day away from gold and using encrypted partitions on a 3yr old machine (which, let me remind you, won't be decommissioned for yet another year since computer hardware has an amortization period of 4 years), or apparently anything with a single core, completely breaks the desktop. So, again, how did this get past QA?
