Title: I Just Lost the Game
I was working off the principle that a fresh system is better than a used system. Also, my old system had a few problems, especially with the audio, as I had replaced PulseAudio with ALSA, and then reversed that. And bootup was getting glitchy.

And I couldn't get Alpha 5 to upgrade to Alpha 6. It would update the packages, but not the distro itself.

Ohh right, it's Ubuntu and its usual SNAFU. Ubuntu failed so hard at implementing pulseaudio, even the pulsaudio developers wrote that. If you set up pulseaudio manually it's awesome, but the setup that ships with ubuntu is so bad. I love my Debian - even though it has no pulseaudio.

Yeah... Ubuntu did a terrible job with pulseaudio; if you Google that term, the top several thousand results are all "How to remove PulseAudio in Ubuntu". I'm not sure why they implemented it on Ubuntu, anyway. I thought the main idea of PulseAudio was that it could serve audio over a network, yet the majority of Ubuntu users wouldn't do that. The type of people that would actually use those features tend to gravitate towards Debian or Red Hat.

Aside from sound and wireless, I haven't had many problems with Ubuntu aside from the self-inflicted ones. If I don't touch the sound settings on a fresh install, it doesn't have any problems, however. And I just need ndiswrapper for the wireless problems, since the Linux drivers don't work with my card.
