Additional to what? Additional to the default drivers, already installed to their system. I don't think this would create much confusion. Maybe for philosophers or nitpickers but not for most normal users.
The big problem now is that people think their "Hardware Drivers" _should_ be enabled. Descend into the world of users (the forums is a great way) and you'll see stories like "I went into Hardware Drivers and enabled the drivers for my ATI card and still it doesn't work" where it's clear that people do not ask themselves if these drivers are really necessary or can cause problems. In the example of the fglrx drivers, they are not "additional" or "extra", they are "instead of" and "fsck up" the default drivers that maybe work better for them. "Third party drivers" is also good, because it indicates that now you're on your own if you install these. I agree that an interface rework would be best, but I think it is too late for Intrepid. And meanwhile we should correct a bad name even if it replaced an even worse one. That's progress. -- Menu name "Hardware Drivers" misleading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
