Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex installation

I installed Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex on my 64-bit pc and it installed like a dream.
Start to finish was under half an hour, making this Ubuntu installation one of the quickest ever, although in fairness, none of these different Ubuntu versions have taken very long.
Intrepid though has fewer questions to answer than previously. There are other Ubuntu distributions on my hard disk and it installed around them,, like it does with Windows, and takes care of the boot loader as well, so when you boot up from cold the choice of operating systems appears in front of you. Neat. This wasn't the case last time I installed openSUSE on another machine with other operating systems on it.
I subsequently had to 'find' the operating system and edit the boot loader in order for it to be present on the boot up menu. Not everyone, I suggest, wants to go to the trouble of doing this, nor indeed might not know how to do it.
So far Intrepid looks up to the usual Ubuntu high standard. That said I've had Kompozer crash a couple of times today. I've never had it do that before.
I also had the same troube with an FTP program, which also hasn't done it before either.
Apart from those two programs everything else seems fine.
Fingers crossed !
