Over the past couple of months, and especially over the past couple of weeks, I've been working very hard to write and complete my thesis. I performed all the work on Windows 7, but now that the thesis is finally done, submitted, and accepted, I installed Ubuntu - and immediately I was reminded of why I do not do any serious work on Linux: the train wreck that is X.org.

Seriously!
I'm not saying vista/win7 or X is better, just that I don't have any problems with X running my desktop, but then I don't use Gnome of KDE, Fluxbox for me
Still, when I was running Ubuntu and Gnome I did experience some X related problems, but I put them down to Gnome not X, because removing Gnome and just running Fluxbox, the problems went away, so go figure? Also Gnome in Debian propper is much more stable than Ubuntu, I would think that's your problem. Ubuntu had constantly gotten more bloated and unstable with each release IMHO!
But anyway, any improvements to xorg from this piece are alway welcome
