I have that old school 90s mentality. I hate updating drivers unless they are for security patches, or bug fixes directly related to my software. Otherwise I feel I end up with more bugs and vulnerabilities and poorer performance, then otherwise. I feel most of the updated videos drivers are made soley for supporting the latest cards. I have this issue now with the latest ndivida drivers for my 650 ti card. Older drivers have better performance. 340xx vs 362. I also don't update my hardware all the time either...lol If it aint broke I don't fix it. But if you are saying that you have a newer board that isn't supported well in linux and have critical issues that are only resolved in a later kernel then I completely understand. Eventually newer hardware has to become supported. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
