I know this bug is now resolved and this might not be the right place for this comment but it's related.
Is there going to be a more indepth warning to those using legacy chipsets about the problems involved with upgrading to Intrepid? GL things I took for granted were compiz and avant-window-navigator. Also the nv driver seems to be very unfriendly towards switching users in X which is something I do often but now I find it works once then after that I need to reboot to get it to work. I think users need to be warned that by upgrading there is a lot they take for granted that will not work correctly. They may have to reconfigure X, they may have to change how their desktop is setup (i'm back to using gnome-panel). They might not be able to easily have multiple desktop users. I'm now having to decide between buying a new graphics card or moving back to hardy. This is clearly nvidia's problem but the first place users will come when their new upgrade doesn't work properly will be here, forums and irc. Apologies if this has already been addressed, as far as I can tell there is no way I can see what the current warning to users is. -- Incompatible Restricted drivers offered for Legacy Nvidia Cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288662 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
