Moved back to Kubuntu Feisty Fawn
You might have read my earlier article about moving to OpenSuSe from Kubuntu. I couldn’t resist the temptation to move back to Kubuntu. I didn’t see anything wrong with OpenSUSE, but I wasn’t comfortable using that compared to (K)Ubuntu, so I downloaded the latest Kubuntu Feisty Fawn beta and burnt it in a CD.
I restarted my laptop, put the Kubuntu CD in and booted from the live CD. For my surprise, the live CD worked just fine without modifying the xorg file. This is the first time the live CD worked. It didn’t work even when Feisty Fawn was in Alpha stage.
Another cool thing that worked with (K)ubuntu Feisty beta that didn’t work before was the wireless connection.
Once I installed and logged in, I installed the ATI driver (fglrx) through adept.
