Ben: : A) We already said we'd include the drivers for feisty.
Actually it was only stated that it was "very likely." : B) This is proprietary software. We have no control over what the vendor does. We do our best, but these are the breaks. If you don't like this sort of thing happening, complain to nVidia, not us. We didn't decide to drop support for the chipsets in question. I don't think anyone is complaining here, just concerned. I think when the decision is made to include a solution to have desktop effects, etc, in conjunction with proprietary drivers, there will be many concerns, especially when there are a lot of users of the proprietary product involved. I think it would be easier to explain exactly what is happening with this situation instead of being defensive; no one blames Ubuntu here. I would like to add that it is very nice to hear that the 96xx drivers are going to be included. : We just provided the latest two drivers that nVidia had available on their web site (7184 and 9755). If they had posted links to three drivers, we'd have provided that from the beginning. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_archive.html : There really is nothing more to say. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://launchpad.net/bugs/96430 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
