Been there, done that.  I arrived back at Kubuntu after making a two 
month pilgrimage through the various *nix flavo(u)rs.  I _almost_stopped 
at SUSE but, having been raised bilingually, didn't like most of the 
interactions between "experts" and newbies in my "other" muttersprach.

For me, it isn't just the OS, it is the conditions of the water in which 
that particular fish swims.  Hence, I also avoid Debian and spare that 
corner of the world many of the descriptive phrases I have learned over 
the years.

Actually, the solution seems to somehow depend upon sending a message 
about the problem to TLUG and rebooting.  I have not completed all 
testing, yet, but my system seems to be doing most of the sound things I 
was not getting it to do before.

Strange things are going on ...
