    Hi Ugo, I have 5.4 on my D800 right now. The only thing I can relate
    is that under WinXP right now, my cursor wanders the screen
    uncontrollably when I use the keyboard. I haven't tried to get the
    wireless nic, firewire or sound working, but everything else is fine,
    afaik. In fact, the resolution and display of my Gnome desktop is
    better than it is under WinXP...I don't have to squint to see
    everything.

    Good luck,
    Bob
