Please keep in mind that Ubuntu is completely free of charge, and a lot of the work is done by volenteers on their spare time. Downloading a alpha/beta release and reporting bugs is one way a normal user can contribute. If you where looking for a stable system you should have waited for the final release. The fix for this particular bug should be available in the repositories so a simple update/upgrade should do it.

I have wasted two days waiting for this pile to install and at the end of it all you give me a notice of not installed upgrade aborted then installed with problems all at the same time make up your damn minds. It's back to 9.1 or windows if this doesn't work out. I thought you guys had the right idea giving an alternative to the insanely bloated windows that have built in back doors for snooping but I was wrong I guess.......... -- package fglrx (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: dpkg-divert: mismatch on package https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/552782 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of a duplicate bug.
