Upgrading the Upgraded Kid

After 10.x was applied on Kid things were working after I removed the Nvidia and put the old CRT on the built-in VGA board. Crappy display but I immediately upgraded to 11.04 that was just out.
When 11.04 was up and running I swapped video card and screens again and lo and behold - it works.
I'm still having issues with suspend/resume though. Will have to disable that for now.

Upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04 then 10.10 on kid PC

Upgraded to 10.04: no problem but as previously, out of the box it doesn't work with the Nvidia Geforce2 MX200 that's plugged in. Couldn't find the way to enter safe mode so I removed the Nvidia card and plugged my old CRT monitor to the internal VGA port. Reboot: OK, I've got a screen to use the system at least.

So I'm now running the 10.04 to 10.10 upgrade.
