Edgy upgrade results [was Re: Edgy upgrade breaks bits.]

        So, now that I have Edgy going and it's working roughly the same as
Dapper was, here are the results:
  - Faster boot times.
  - True type fonts look better (a lot better; I finally had to stop
using an old copy of Mozilla for reading email, and upgrade to
Seamonkey, which looks great!). I had to disable the font smoothing
exclusion sizes, though :)
  - Newer software (KDE 3.5.6).

Otherwise it acts very much the same. I know there are a lot of
under-the-hood things that have changed, but it's not all "in your face"
like that Win XP -> Windows Vista upgrade some people are getting. It's
more like the kind of upgrade experience I get on the Mac; newer, better
software that works better!
