Edit: Sorry for posting on this issue again but it seems like my previous #192 comment by premature, the X crashing issue is back. It seemed for a while that things might be ok but now atleast 4 crashes happen every hour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

I have the same problem as everyone here, I am using the 295.33 version seems to have solved my problem. The nouveau driver worked wonderfully as well. My only issue with nouveau is the high fan speeds are really annoying and power consuming. I hope to see fixed version soon. -- You received

And oh I am on GeForce GT230. Just some additional info: The 3D unity loads fine as long as i don't do anything slightly cpu intensive (like loading a html5 video in firefox 12) and the gpu crashes and logs me off (not shutdown but just log off). But 2D unity seems to work just fine in the new

@Ben A #127 Thanks for the link, everything seems to be working just fine with new version 295.49. Better than fine since 3D loads fine and doesn't seem to die on me. But need to test it more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to

Just an update on 295.49, I have had a few X crashes so far. Much less common than before but seems like I can live with this version for a while. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982485

@rdenis #2 ah I thought it was bug in vlc since this is only program that I use with this problem. But it seems like you are right. one prossiable fix could be having a floating player controls bar, instead of fixed one when I restore from fullscreen. But that would require some UI redesign and I

i still have issues(#136) with the new nvidia-current-updates package in Precise-Proposed. Over at nvidia forums I read that new version of X-org in 12.04 is incompatiable with new nvidia drivers with older graphics cards. sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep nvidia
