Yes, Ubuntu is a lot buggier than straight Debian - probably because they rush to get stuff out, unlike Debian, who only release when there are no such bugs as, e.g., wipe out your hand crafted conf files.

Tried Ubuntu, and SuSE, and gone back to good 'ole Debian - which means on my own box I can junk KDE/Gnome and have a simple Window Manager such as FVWM and my own choice of other stuff, right from the install. Plus running a server with Debian is IMNSHO a better bet than using any other distro.
