I completely agree, it's a bad user experience. The reason why proprietary drivers like Nvidia are historically not installed by default I think is because they have their own license conditions.
In practice the real problem here seems to be the bugginess of the open source nouveau driver you will get instead. It's been causing pain for us for years and I would tend to think we should partially disable it. Maybe just disable the acceleration part (mesa) and not the KMS part (kernel). ** Summary changed: - [nouveau][amdgpu] Weird colors after startup (Ubuntu 22.04) + [nouveau] Weird colors after startup (Ubuntu 22.04) ** Package changed: mutter (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969959 Title: [nouveau] Weird colors after startup (Ubuntu 22.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1969959/+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
