Alot of people with Core i-7 processors and Nvidia card combinations
have been reporting performance issues with their systems including
system lagging and sluggishness, poor graphics rendering, desktop
glitches, and long boot and installation times. I've had many of these
issues. Including and extremely slow boot with the start up disk, a slow
installation, and a sluggish system that fails to render some things
properly. XFCE and Gnome both use similar process management systems and
in some cases have the same back end systems running. I wonder if their
is a common process that isn't playing nice with the x58 boards using
nvidia drivers. I wonder if anyone can think of a process or program
that could cause all of these different bugs?

I'm going to try and download the MM 10.10 disk again and reinstall once
again to see if I'm just getting my disk from a bad mirror, but if this
fails again, I'm probably going to just go back to 10.04 as it has
worked well on my machine with only some minor crashes here and there,
and i currently cannot do my home work or manage my business because I
never know if my fonts will be correct when I boot my machine. I really
hope someone will deal with this soon. I've been using Ubuntu since
Dapper Drake, and have really loved it seeing it just get better and
better every time. However, this is a major regression, it won't shake
my faith in the project or conical but, i can't help but be a bit miffed
that this was their finished product. The x58 mother board and Nvidia
200 series card I bought, I bought because they were supposed to be well
supported in Linux and common enough in the market that I figured they'd
be well tested and well supported by the linux community. I'm sad to see
this issue  not addressed in the beta testing process for 10.10,
especially with how well this same hardware worked with 10.04. I hope
it's all sorted out by 11.04.
