Hi Adam, I've never used this -proposed repo and had a coupla questions..(my son son Sean Feole works for Canonical as well)
I've been using Ubuntu for work/home use since 2006 or so when i was at Sun and heard about it via Solaris Engineering... Anyway, I enabled the -proposed repo, and I see a lot of stuff. My question is, can I deselect all the other stuff and only load the NVIDIA 346 stuff? Guess my real question is, what stuff do I need to install to rectify this NVIDIA bug..? Thank You, John Feole On Thu, Jul 23, 2015 at 4:15 PM, Adam Conrad <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Stefan, or anyone else affected, > > Accepted nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 into trusty-proposed.
