Re: [gnome-love] a question from a humble user

[edson.caetano <edson caetano ig com br>]

No, this option was never used in any machine here. This disk was used only 
to tests (using available space) and it was well-known for his bad sectors. 
I have many machines here (desktops and notebooks) which i installed Ubuntu 
Hoary and Breezy-Preview and none of them never locked up :^))))). 

Best regards!
