I have been using the KDE Version of Ubuntu Setup as a dual boot system My nvidia Vidieo adapter works under Vista and in linux .My Haupauge win tv 250 tv card works fine in linux but not in Vista using Win tvs apllication .I had to use Dscaler to get my tv to work under Vista.My worst problem is when I attempt to clone Dvds I get error messages no matter which program I try even though the disk isn't encrypted( Trying to copy a cloned disk that was decrypted using dvd fab gold under windows.Other than this I am finding Linux to be more hardware compatible than Vista.Is anybody else having problems?and has anyone tried the beta of the new version of Ubuntu codenames Gutsy Gibbon

I have not tried 7.10 beta yet, but I have found after installing Ubuntu on quite a few PC's, that it's all due to the hardware configuartion, most of the time Ubuntu works flawlessly right out of the gate, but sometimes it requires some tweaking to get everything working. I'm not a Linux expert by any means, but I have found that mostly it's pretty easy to get Ubuntu up and running with most hardware configurations built within the last 5 years or so.

Well, considering Vista spends half of it's processor time trying to enforce DRM , I'm not surprised DVD duplication is a disaster,
