We're getting off topic from the original intent of the OP's thread.
But since you mentioned this ...
I sure am glad that I use Debian and not Ubuntu. My IBM ThinkPad X31
laptop, which is still quite usable, would be a brick if I ran Ubuntu.
It has a Pentium M processor in it, and that processor does not have
the PAE feature.
Long live pure Debian! And kudos to the Debian kernel team!
