.... hmm... so there's the Black Magic issue to contend with...

And by the way, I was going to install the Ubuntu on an old Hitachi
box I've successfully installed previous versions of... Kubuntu on,
but it doesn't have the right video driver.  Ubuntu appears to be
falling apart from the standpoint of someone trying to run it on old
boxes.  Lubuntu also does't have video support on that box.  I've
forgotten the name of the on-board video chip, but it's not Intel.

I wish Suse hadn't been sold downriver - it used to be a great distro.
