it didn't work video real well
Are you using the proprietary drivers? sometimes the open-source drivers don't work as well but the video playback dramatically improves when you use the proprietary drivers. on ubuntu it is really easy to switch to the proprietary drivers, no command line needed last I checked
With linux it always seemed there was always something that didn't quite work right..like the lousy wireless connection on the laptop downstairs...but some of that is simply me not having enough time devoted to getting the bugs worked out..I've no experience using command line so I want to work out issues w/o using that so something I have to learn.
Most of this stuff is resolvable, some of it just takes a little more work. Many distributions, like Ubuntu, have an incredible amount of community support behind them. More than likely you could get all those problems ironed out if you ask around their forums: Ubuntu Forums
