Jumping into this thread a little late in the game, but on my NVidia-equipped machine running Ubunto 12.04 LTS Chrome has never had a problem, and is far more reliable at playing video (Flash-based and otherwise) than Firefox. That said, i experienced frequent crashes of in Unity, where one or both of my displays would get unreadbly garbled, until i remembered that closed-source hardware drivers don't get updated through UpdateManager/apt-get, but rather through the "Additional Drivers" utility. So, i update from v. 173 to 319 "post-release-updates" and so far, so good. ________________________________________ Joe Shisei Niski Portland, Oregon, USA 至誠 _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
