It seems my ability to edit the wikki is nonexistent at the moment. 

I have a README.txt file on the web and in the tarball. The tarball is
~21MB. It contains a script that will do most of the
upgrade/installation process. There are also two other little scripts
that solved some issues for me. They are all documented in the README as
well the scripts themselves.

Yes. I document my scripts now. :) One of my engineers on the APS
install threatened to do horrible things to my beer supply if I didn't
at least start at least leaving bread crumbs of what I was doing :)

I was planning on using Gnome anyways and it sounds like everything is working right away with it. We have a UnitedStreaming subscription too and if that worked in the lab I'd have one more thing to show off to my teachers and make them consider a wider use. Thanks Eric and everyone else for doing so much, I wish I knew more to be a better help.
