[Bug 115103] Re: Boost 1.34.0 released, plan to update?
When a library releases a non-bug-fix update after an Ubuntu release, is the official Ubuntu policy that it will not be updated until the next Ubuntu release? That is to say, except for bug fixes, the package versions that are in Ubuntu release X are the only package versions that will ever be in the Ubuntu release? Also, this page about the package in gutsy still describes the package version as 1.33.1 even though the source package appears to be 1.34.0: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/gutsy/libdevel/libboost-dev -- Boost 1.34.0 released, plan to update? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 96430] Re: MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631)
Timo Aaltonen (and Ben Collins I suppose), if nothing else the 9631 drivers are 4 months newer than the 7184 series. Here's another good post by an nvidia employee where he mentions the 71xx "legacy branch" and a 96xx "legacy branch": http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=1208356&postcount=2 I read that as saying it'll be at least as well supported as the 71xx series. I'll ask this again though: have you actually confirmed anything with nvidia or are we all (still) just making guesses? If you don't think nvidia will support the 96xx series like they have the 71xx series, I guess I can't do anything about it. However, I agree with cement_head. You can't claim that this "just works" or that it makes life easy for non-power users. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://launchpad.net/bugs/96430 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 96430] Re: MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631)
We are using a development version to test it and provide feedback to the Ubuntu team. While some of these comments may not be constructive, isn't the whole point of releasing public betas to have this discussion now with a few testers rather than later when it causes problems for many more people? I think James has a good idea to have a single nvidia-glx package that includes all 3 driver versions and uses the correct version automatically. Perhaps it is not feasible for Feisty at this point (or maybe even at all, I don't know), but I'd say it's worth considering. Feisty is scheduled to be released in 15 days, and I still don't see any sign of the 96xx driver in the repos. I'm sure we would all like to make sure it gets tested before Feisty is released. When can we expect to see it in the repos? -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96430 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 96972] [Feisty] nvidia's 97xx driver dropped support for GeForce4 and below
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nvidia-glx I updated from edgy to feisty over the weekend on my laptop with a GeForce4 4200 Go card. While the installation of the proprietary nvidia drivers was very slick, it appears that the nvidia 97xx driver series no longer supports anything older than a GeForceFX: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/appendix-a.html Note that GeForce2 - GeForce4 cards are still supported in the 96xx series, which is much newer than the "legacy" 71xx series. I guess I now have the option of either using the non-accelerated nv driver, using a very old 71xx driver (which by the way is not supported by the proprietary driver loader), or manually installing the nvidia driver. I believe the proprietary driver system should detect which driver is best suited for the users card and install that, rather than blindly installing the 97xx series driver and breaking X for anyone with an older card. ** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- [Feisty] nvidia's 97xx driver dropped support for GeForce4 and below https://launchpad.net/bugs/96972 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I learned that the order of the command line arguments to g++ makes a difference. The fedora user I mentioned earlier did not use my command line, he built the sample code in Eclipse.

A Fedora 4 user running gcc 4.0.0 and boost 1.32 reported that my sample code works fine.

I thought perhaps "-lboost_filesystem" would do it, but that doesn't help. Another Ubuntu user has reproduced this, so I believe I am either doing something dumb or there is a bug in the library.
