[ubuntu-uk] Gcompris and Unity

2012-04-22 Thread Andres Muniz
For some time i was using gcompris erase program (with my toddler most of the 
tome). Consists of moving a sponge that erases white squares that are overlayed 
an image. With unity these squares never quite removed leaving some leftovers.
Today i moved to unity2D and it worked fine.
i'm using ubuntu 11.10. Is it a gcompris problem, unity problem or nvidia 
problem? 
Should I wait for ubuntu 12.04? Should i look into installing a more up to date 
gcompris (compile from source or something?)--

nvidia


Should I wait for ubuntu 12.04?


don't wait, upgrade today!

I wouldn't. I would go for the packaged version in 12.04 first. I doubt 
the problem is directly in gcompris anyway, it will just be triggering a 
bug in the nvidia drivers.

 Thanks. i'll give 12.04 a go: updater did not mention it yet.



That's because it's still in beta but the release is only a few days
away so you should have no problem. To upgrade, press Alt+F2 and type in
update-manager -d (without the quotes) into the command box, as
explained on this page:
