I was feeling adventurous this morning and decided to upgrade my
Mythbuntu 8.04.1 system to 8.10.
My experience upgrading Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 was relatively painless.
The only 'gotcha' I encountered was after upgrading my video performance
was terrible (with an integrated nvidia card on the motherboard) - HD
playback stuttered really badly even though had been good before.
glxgears went from about 2,000 before the upgrade to about 1,200 which
was another indication. It turns out the upgrade had turned on some
sort of special graphics effects. As soon as I turned effects back to
'none' glxgears improved, and HD performance was restored.
So in case anyone else encounters this - try turning off all effects
before meddling with video playback profiles in myth.

I believe compiz is on by default in ubuntu these days. If it detects
the ability to push OpenGL then compiz will start.<br>
