Hi there, I don't really wanna use the AMD64bit installation coz the problem appears with my friends VIA-chipset laptops too who happen to have Intel CPUs. I really wouldn't tweak anything. All I wish is that Ubuntu shall work with our VIA-chipset comps as it worked like a charm in version 7.04. Since 7.10 was released we cannot do anything. I'm no software engineer but have the impression that for the Ubuntu proggramers it would be something like to change or add 2 or 3 lines in/to the code, the little thing that version 7.04 had and since 7.10 it doesn't. I just want Ubuntu to run smoothly and perfectly again on our puters as it used to.
