Granted that we do have an "obligation" to go thru the entire ritual of updating and guinea-pigging the new image, the problems I have encountered with build 93, on a Thinkpad R61i, include:

slow video (solved with a workaround)
video suspend doesn't work 
corrupted NIC driver (need to resize mtu)
battery monitor not working (the workaround worked only initially)
USB auto-mount not working 
power-management still not working
java environment still not properly set up

I will try to do a send/receive of a build 91 snapshot from a different machine (this machine was image-updated directly from OS 08.05).  If that doesn't work, I will change the default grub boot setting to the original CD, while keep the option of being able to boot back to build-93 if I hear any good news.
