Currently there's no Mir suport for non-free video drivers, so anyone with nVidia/ATI will need to use Xorg. Additionally, some of the other flavors are sticking with X for 13.10, and X from 13.10 is needed for 12.04 hardware enablement updates, so it'll be maintained in any case. Scott K On

Thank you very much to the people who jumped in to test PowerPC for Kubuntu. Thanks to you we were able to release Kubuntu 13.04 for PowerPC (we missed it for 12.10 due to a lack of testers/lack of work arounds for issues that were found). Because you not only ran the test case, but kept at it

I thought 12.04 had a non-PAE kernel and it was dropped in 12.10. I think it was just made non-default and not available in the installer in 12.04. Scott K On Tuesday, April 09, 2013 03:59:51 PM David Gumberg wrote: > For those of you who are wondering, the reason older machines can't run > 12.
