Timo Aaltonen (and Ben Collins I suppose), if nothing else the 9631 drivers are 4 months newer than the 7184 series. Here's another good post by an nvidia employee where he mentions the 71xx "legacy branch" and a 96xx "legacy branch": http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=1208356&postcount=2
I read that as saying it'll be at least as well supported as the 71xx series. I'll ask this again though: have you actually confirmed anything with nvidia or are we all (still) just making guesses? If you don't think nvidia will support the 96xx series like they have the 71xx series, I guess I can't do anything about it. However, I agree with cement_head. You can't claim that this "just works" or that it makes life easy for non-power users. -- 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
