The proprietary fglrx and nvidia drivers obviously don't work against this new Xserver. Due to packaging bugs, they *also* won't prevent the upgrade going through, leaving a non-functioning X until they are removed. Please remove the fglrx or nvidia drivers before testing. If you're not using a proprietary driver, -siliconmotion, or -openchrome, xorg-edgers is good to go. > Bryce > > On Fri, Jan 14, 2011 at 04:13:48PM -0500, Felix Kuehling wrote: > > Hi Bryce, > > > > The PPA is still not usable: > > > > xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion, openchrome and vmware are broken > > (still depend on the old xorg-video-abi-8.0). > > > > If I try to remove them, other packages break due to unresolved > > dependencies: > > > > * xserver-xorg-video-all depends on xserver-xorg-video-* > > * xserver-xorg depends on xserver-xorg-video-all > > * xserver-xorg-core depends on xserver-xorg-video-all > > > > In the end the only way to resolve the broken dependencies is to not > > update at all or completely uninstall Xorg. > > > > Similar story on the input side with xserver-xorg depending on > > xserver-xorg-input-all depending on xserver-xorg-input-wacom, which is > > broken due to a dependency on an old xorg-input-abi-11.0. > > > > Regards, > > Felix > > > > On Fri, 2011-01-14 at 15:54 -0500, Bryce Harrington wrote: > > > We're going to be moving natty to its new X stack within the next week > > > or two.

Re: [ubuntu-x] New X stack in xorg-edgers
Thanks Felix. Weird we didn't bang into that problem on our machines, but Chris is uploading rebuilds for these drivers presently. We'll send a notice once these are corrected.

New X stack in xorg-edgers
We're going to be moving natty to its new X stack within the next week or two. This includes snapshots for the upcoming xserver 1.10 and mesa 7.10, along with some new driver bits. Currently this stack is available in xorg-edgers, and maps well to what we'll be uploading shortly. You can help us pre-test these bits by installing xorg-edgers on your systems at this time. Our testing has shown it to be quite stable, but the devil's in the corner cases when it comes to X, so your testing will help us get a head's start on making it work better for your HW. 1. The PPA is available at: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa 2. Here's a simple way to install: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade Then reboot your system to get to the new bits. 3. If you want to go back to stock Ubuntu, there is a corresponding ppa-purge tool: sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade 4. If you happen to find bugs, you can report them the usual way: ubuntu-bug xorg Include a photo of the screen if appropriate (e.g. screen corruption).

Re: [ubuntu/natty] libqtgconf 0.1-0ubuntu1 (Accepted)
Hello Michael, Michael Casadevall [2011-01-14 20:24 -]: > libqtgconf (0.1-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low > > * Initial Release (LP: #702972) With gconf being in the process of obsoletion, does it really make sense to build new technology on this? IMHO this should be using gsettings now, or dconf directly.
