[ltp] Is Kubuntu Dapper Drake the end of the line for 600x?

[Phil Shotton]

Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10) installed with no problems off the live CD on my 
600x. Using the network (through a Linksys wireless USB stick) 
occasionally hangs the system solid, but apart from that it's fine. I 
can't get acpi to work (even with acpi=force on boot)
