Since Feisty is just around the corner, I have decided to wait for Feisty. (Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I have spent little time on my computer since your last send.) I am hopping that the Feisty ISO file will include a simple Upgrade Feature where Kubuntu and Ubuntu can understand an installation is in existence and Upgrade on its own. (If not in Feisty, sometime in the next 2 future Releases.) Or maybe have an "Upgrade Current" as an option on the list that appears when the CD is first launched. This would then handle the upgrade which would look for updated drivers and correct the required file entries as needed to. This is just to complex right now! It's causing thoughts of going back to Microsoft. - Never mind I have not been able to get my nVidia gForce4 Ti 4200 AGP 8x Video Card on a VT 8237 P.C.I. Bridge to work properly. I cannot run OpenGL because the Drivers in the Repositories crash the system and require complex command line knowledge to fix. I ended up reloading the system some time ago and have lived without the FULL functionality of the card ever since. Not wanting to revisit that mess!
This is an old card and should have driver support built-in to Kubuntu, especially since Linux Drivers are available at nVidia! There is to much command line work and file editing to bother with with the drivers from nVidia. I have also found many sources on this subject all cannot agree and what needs changing in the files. Some have more changes than others. No standard info so no installation. I am trying to get a business rolling. I can't be spending my time with things that do not work, require expertise I do not have to get to work, and/or require System File edits. I'm giving Kubuntu til the end of 2007 to demonstrate that it is on top of these issues. If by then things have not improved, I will be forced to go back to Microsoft with reluctance, but! out of the need to have things working. I am a Photographer so Video matters! I am starting my own business in photography and need working video. -- Trying to report a Kubuntu Upgrade Issue https://launchpad.net/bugs/89568 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
