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
