    If you are referring to jre 6 and the firefox plugin, they are both in synaptic. If you are not, please disregard.

    I had CPU issues as well, it didn't max out or anything but CPU usage was unacceptably high for me. Mind you, Hardy was very stable and with the Flock Browser installed, I had none Flash problems or Browser freezing that others are reporting.

    I have since gone back to Gutsy and it's much more economical. I'll try Hardy again in a couple of months when 'Special Pack 1' comes out.

    I got it via Torrent yesterday. Haven't tried it yet, will do as soon as I get an old 'puter. Checksummed out ok. I'm really curious. It's rumoured that it's 10% -15% faster than Linux.

    Thanks for the reply.
