Ubuntu Upgrade Followup

I finally had a spare moment to do some testing, and discovered that a lot of the problems I have been having (the slow boot, the remote not working, one or two others) stem from a single problem: the printer. Once the printer was unplugged, the system started up normally (though still a little slower than I would like) and the ATI remote started working. Plugging the printer in post-boot caused it to properly appear in lsusb (it wasn't before - which is why I suspected it as the problem).

A quick reinstall of the printer drivers later and the printer... still doesn't work. I don't really want to fight with it right now (I have my old configs and my new configs battling each other, plus firmware issues to deal with...), so I'll just print to the network printer on the rare occasion that I need to print (not too often since school ended).

Though I have to wonder... my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate shows up in the mail on the day that I am fighting with my Ubuntu install... is that some sort of sign, do you think?
