Interestingly, I completely reinstalled 11.10 earlier today and then did the upgrade to 12.04 again and I saw the low graphics mode problem straight away whereas before this was not a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed

As a quick workaround, you could exit the low graphics mode notification by selecting 'OK' and then selecting one of the options followed by 'OK' (or just by pressing ESC). Then, login via the command line then enter: sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart This will then restart the desktop

2012-02-10 Thread Gary Mellor
