I let my mom use my computer yesterday and went to my friends house to puff a bowl and when I got back my system drive had crashed. She said that what had happened was the programs started acting all weird and so she decided to restart.

A major deterrant for me has been lack of full support for the Turtle Beach Santa Cruz (Crystal 4630) sound card, mainly 4/6-speaker playback. Is the support already available, and if so in what Linuxes? Francis.
