Well my ideal solution is to ditch the graphical local console anyway... The setup wizard is just run in firefox on the local box, why can't we just get to it via http management?

X is simply more trouble than it's worth. Not to mention a resource pig.

BUT... that is a rather fundamental change in the way UT works and I don't see it landing anytime soon. I'm just hoping the open source community that surrounds XOrg can find a way to fix this. Oddly enough XOrg on Debian specifically seems to be one of the largest pains. Doing some googling shows that Fedora, CentOS, SuSE, and several other distros are working fine.
