Unfortunately, by the SRU team's policy it's not allowed to update an entire driver version in a stable release, only cherrypick fixes for specific bugs, and only after extensive testing.
However, I know it sucks when the driver in the distro is busted and a newer release works but isn't available. So as a way to solve these sorts of problems, I've established a PPA for getting new stable versions of various drivers and added 713 there: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- [need update] Please update "xserver-xorg-video-openchrome" to the 0.2.903+svn713-1 version in Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343571 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
