Intrepid Ibex alpha 5

Installed Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex alpha 5 tonight and everything seems to work right out of the box. Brilliant!
I got wireless with WPA, ati x700 graphics with compiz, boot splash is in place.
The one and only error in the system log is still the same as with alpha 3:

ker@ibex:~/down/apps$ grep error /var/log/messages 
Sep 16 23:19:52 ibex kernel: [    2.055919] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22

I don't know whats wrong and I don't really care right now since everything seems to work.

I am getting slow performance from the wlan, intel ipw2200. There are tons of this

Sep 17 22:00:44 ibex kernel: [ 5372.327668] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.

in the log. After running

sudo modprobe ipw2200

it goes up to normal performance, for a while.

By the way, instead of burning cds everytime I want to install I use one of 2 other methods:
1. usb stick with the live iso. I just format my 1GB stick with

mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb -I 

and then run unetbootin and point it to the desktop iso.
2. pxe boot. I have a pxe server running where I serve nfs mounted isos.
To avoid downloading full isos everytime there's a new ubuntu release I just use rsync and remount the isos.
