During X-server configuration I could no longer select any of the numbered version nVidia drivers, only nv... which seemed OK, but later froze. 2. Neither Firefox 3.0.6 nor Thunderbird would launch. I saw the bouncing icon for a minute then it would simply give up for both apps. 3. I decided to download new PBIs and re-install them. When I ran the Firefox 3.0.6 uninstall script it did not get rid of the menu entries, but after I installed Firefox 3.0.7 it would launch properly at least. 4. When I tried to uninstall Thunderbird Mail the script wanted to uninstall Firefox instead as if there were crossed wires somewhere. I went into the program folder I noticed that the uninstalled Firefox 3.0.6 folder was still there. After trying to run scripts and/or using the Add/Remove program utility I resorted to using rm -r on both the Firefox 3.0.6 and Thunderbird folders to get rid of them and re-installed a working version of Thunderbird. 5. I also experienced a couple of freezes that forced me to shut down the X-server once and the whole PC the next time. Altogether Beta 1 has been a lot worse on my AMD 64 with nVidia 7600GT than Alpha 1 or 2 ever were. I am sad to say that my Windows 7 Beta install has done better, which I did not expect. I will try a fresh install tonight instead of the Apha2 to Beta1 upgrade I used before, but I am not sure that it will care of all the oddities. I will let you know if it does.
