> Has anyone ever written a review of Ubuntu that wasn't glowing? Sure, I've seen plenty of negative reviews. "Ubuntu didn't work on my hardware", "it isn't ready for the desktop", etc. Sometimes the complaints are valid, sometimes not.

Here are the valid ones havp start-up script is broken (someone already reported this and last I checked it was still not fixed). Ubuntu could never get my resolution right 1600x1040+nVidia card. Fedora and openSUSE has no issue.
havp unmaintained

Looks fixed to me: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/havp/+bug/94552 havp looks unmaintained in Debian, perhaps you would like to adopt it?
