>From what I've seen, there is a large number of people with this bug. I've looked for help on ubuntuforums extensively, and from what I've seen this problem has existed for long time, close to half a year I'd say, and has still not been resolved. There are many other users on ubuntuforums with this problem desperately looking for a solution. To tell you the truth, I just started trying to use Linux and heard that Ubuntu was it's "best" version from many places. So I tried it out, and I'm left looking for a solution to this problem and find that almost nothing is being done to solve it. This experience definitely turned me off to Linux, and I expect it has, and will continue to do the same to many others with an otherwise perfectly good computer. And since it's a problem with compatibility with hardware, I wouldn't be suprised if this same problem extends to other computers than just those using ATI Radeons in the future. Now, I realize that I can try other versions of Linux, which in all likelihood I will. But it is still very disconcerting that I am unable to use one of the "finest" versions because of what I would think is a very simple problem. It's not very hard to imagine why Windows is still so popular, even with all of its problems, when errors like this go unsolved for months at a time on Ubuntu. So, please, if you have been working diligently to solve this problem, respond to this and let me know that I don't know what I'm talking about and that it has proved a lot more difficult to solve than previously expected. But if this has been sitting around as an unsolved bug, which screws over a large number of people just because they have a good computer with good parts that just happens to not be compatible, then I suggest the people who have the programming experience and drive to make Ubuntu such a great OS do something about this problem immediately.
