I wiped out my PCLOS only after a day of using it. I found few bugs after updating and upgrading it using Synaptic: 1. My Windows Manager is broken. I think Compiz (Beryl 3D) was behind this, as I could not load a proper Windows Manager during the start-up. 2. KMyMoney was also not working. Some MIME files were missing, although I have updated it few times. So, I headed up to Ubuntuforums, found the solution for the bugs, and managed to install Ubuntu FF (upgraded to GG) yesterday. And the good news is... Beryl is working!!! Cheers! You know what? I wiped out my PCLOS only after a day of using it. I found few bugs after updating and upgrading it using Synaptic:
