IN case anyone is tracking this bug -- I wasn't able to use Unity in 14.04 LTS at all with this card because there's no longer a 2D fallback. I was tired of getting messages warning about losing hardware support for the 12.04 kernels.
SO I finally worked around the problem by removing the ATI RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] video card and put in another cheapo one that didn't have this problem (it's an [AMD/ATI] RV620 LE [Radeon HD 3450]). I still have the video card with the bug but am no longer using it. I believe the offending card came with the Dell as an OEM installation, but it's generic. ** Summary changed: - Dash Home not usable on Unity 3D for this hardware + Dash Home not usable on Unity 3D for Radeon HD 3450 ** Summary changed: - Dash Home not usable on Unity 3D for Radeon HD 3450 + Dash Home not usable on Unity 3D for ATI RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073327 Title: Dash Home not usable on Unity 3D for ATI RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1073327/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
