James, However upset you might be, remember you're using a *DEVELOPMENT* version.
I don't think your last 2 questions are worth being posted to this site, so the answers might not. However, for reference: - can a non tech savvy user do the above? If they can't they shouldn't be using a development version - whether they are tech savvy or not is irrelevant here. - does windows do this better? You must be better informed than me then. I have never installed any development version of any Windows OS yet. However I *do* remember some painful Windows installations that (pick the following): - erased the booting sequence (grub) - refused to start and even access any command line to try to fix it - booted in 640x480 16 color mode - showed a garbled screen after updating nvidia drivers... and I save you other headaches (the worse always happen after *it*'s properly installed. Bottom line, please pay attention to the *development* *alpha* *beta* warnings if you can't cope with some *development* *alpha* *beta* problems. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96430 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
