I installed Xubuntu 13.10 in an Acer Aspire 3000 Series. It uses the SiS 760/M760 chipset. I've been testing the patched driver that was packaged by Daniel Letzeisen for months, and it has been working without any problem. I'm very happy with the result, because I don't need any fancy graphic effects.
It would be good if the original source code were patched. Although by your words I doubt that it ever happens :/ . ** Attachment added: "Output of the "lspci" command." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-sis/+bug/1066464/+attachment/3954703/+files/lspci.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066464 Title: Please patch xserver-xorg-video-sis for Saucy and Raring (was: SiS driver crashes Xserver with EXA acceleration) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-sis/+bug/1066464/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
