Guy,

I'm having Hardy Heron 8.04 on my lappy for about a month now. I've been working with twinview without a problem until now. I manage to install few games(termoulous+nexuiz) and update all packages, my PC is not getting stable, but usually i can over come by log-off and login again. Unstable I mean is when I went to jango.com, sound works fine, but after i close jango and start to play games, the sound did came out. I've to re-login again to get the sound. My deluge also sometimes doesnt finish its job and I've to start over again.

Few question I need to ask here. Is updating my packages to the latest is a bad idea? Do i've to check on something before I install/update?

thank you for sharing ur thought on this fastcx, i appreciate your help.

i got to admit tht i'm new too ubuntu and still reading and learning to understand how/what OS works. Regarding the update tht i've done, its all from the synaptic package manager. almost every alternate days I got a 'buzz' theres newer update on some package I believe i did not ever update any development package as I think thats will bring more unstability to my running OS.

I'm running mu ubuntu on compaq 3282AU, using HDA Nvidia mixer(ALSA Mixer), which it was configured by default.

If there is anything I should know about updating package/repository/dependency please point me more.
