This is still a problem with 13.04. Please just apply the patch. This problem is well documented and while upstream is unresponsive the patch is known to fix this. I hope Ubuntu developers know how frustrating this has been. It is a critical bug (the system won't even boot properly), there is a simple and known working fix available, yet nothing ever happens. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/706063 Title: Nvidia GT240 compatibility issue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/706063/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 706063] Re: Nvidia GT240 compatibility issue
Can you provide some information on the status of the patch with regards to getting it merged upstream? Has it been sent upstream, what sort of feedback has it received, is it getting applied to a subsystem maintainer's tree, etc? People affected by this bug are probably wondering why the kernel team doesn't just apply the patch and fix it. The reason is that the kernel team is reluctant (not opposed) to apply any patch to a stable kernel that is not from upstream. Applying patches that don't come from upstream add greatly to the support of the kernel as other upstream patches may touch the same area as the non-upstream patch and may prevent them from applying cleanly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/706063 Title: Nvidia GT240 compatibility issue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/706063/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
