I've had some instability at times out of X running on it. It's a bug that
OpenOffice specifically tickles. If I try to run OOo, my CPU goes through the
roof and the box becomes unresponsive. That includes running it remotely from
my desktop and using the laptop as an xterm. I'm told that X 4.2 will fix
that, but I haven't tried it yet. I need to set up pinning so that I only get
X 4.2, and not the rest of unstable. sawfish in unstable sucks at the moment.
