Very impressive, setup was instant, well thought out. 2. Suspend to RAM/Hibernate works perfectly. 3. Ability to control LCD brightness using Gnome applet. 4. Automatic mounting of external USB hard-drives works better than before (probably something with my device, but works better) 5. Automatic dimming of laptop LCD when idle. The feel is good, and the system is stable. Getting that feel-good factor that 7.10 used to bring :) The best things:
