Let me explain briefly then. I don't have anything against Ubuntu, and I would like to be able to use it since there is so much community support. Unfortunately, as I said before, I haven't gotten past the graphical issues. I don't need everything to work perfectly out of the box either, but Ubuntu seems to have more graphical issues than I have seen in other distros (for my hardware).

Probably the biggest reason that I haven't gotten past the graphical issues is due to the fact that once X fails, I'm limited to a single CLI until I manually force X back into some sort of safe mode. From what I've read, the new system would allow me to make a change and test it out, and the worst result should be that I end up back in the same spot. That would make troubleshooting both faster and easier. Surely, it's not that hard to understand.
