Public bug reported: Testing 12.04 alpha 1 64 bit on my Asus G60JX laptop. Worked well enough with previous versions ( http://kegel.com/linux/asus-g60jx-laptop.html ).
As with previous versions of Ubuntu, the Live CD / normal desktop installer couldn't get graphics right, so used alternate install iso, and had to specify "nomodeset" on kernel commandline after installation to get any graphics. Was able to do a complete software update, then rebooted. After that, networking seemed flakier. When I try downloading the nvidia display driver with "Additional Drivers", the download seems to hang after a few seconds. Rebooting and retrying doesn't help. There were several crashes, and apport collected data for them and even uploaded one of them, but I was unable to finish the login process at launchpad. I had to reboot to 11.04 to file this report. This is all with wired networking, as wireless doesn't work at all. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/917399 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 alpha 1 network flaky after update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/917399/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
