I'm also adding a task against jockey for this issue, because however fglrx-installer is made to refuse to install when it sees versions of xserver and linux that it can't support, jockey should also respect this and not show the driver as available for the hardware.
Possibly, a simpler solution would be to leave fglrx-installer as is, and just manually disable/enable fglrx in jockey each release. As long as someone always remembers to do this going forward, it'd be an acceptable solution. But making it automatically detect would be nice as then (in theory) no one would have to remember to do this step. Also, it would be resilient against the user installing a newer kernel or xserver since these are now pretty easily available via PPAs now. ** Changed in: jockey (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- should not offer -fglrx until it is available in the development version https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508860 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
