- Went smoothly
- Tried KDE4. Pretty, but wasn't impressed. Went back to Xfce4.*
- 3D works out of the box, so the radeon drivers for the R500/R600 seem to be working nicely.
- Not much else to say.

  • = KDE made my computer feel slow, likely because of all the bling. With the advanced desktop effects enabled, it also got in the way of hardware accelerated video displaying correctly.
