Hi All,

I just upgraded from SL 6.6 to 7.1.

¡Ay, caramba!

1)  I have to have my backup sata drives removed to boot.
     SL7 tries to mount them as my 9750-4I raid controller
     and freezes up.  After booting up I can insert the
     eSata drive(s).  And do you think I would remember?
     In other words. I have top boot up twice.

2)  I can't print an envelope to my Oki B4350.  Paper
     size mismatch.  CUPS tells my printer that a #10
     envelope is a B5 piece of paper.  Overriding the prompt
     from my printer results in a ruined envelope.

3)  eth0 and eth1 got replaced with enp6so and enp7so,
     which wasn't entirely unexpected, but what a pain in
     the butt to re-write my scrips.

4)  Osmo just beeps at me and throws a

        /etc/gdm/Xsession: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection
        section 0x7ba67ba0 "profile.c: PROFILE_CritSect" wait
        timed out in thread 0009, blocked by 0082, retrying
        (60 sec)

     So all my tasks in Osmo are useless.  Osmo just says
     they can not reproduce it.


What a disaster.  :'(

At least VLC installed without issue!
