I don't normally check these things as Ubuntu usually doesn't do this sort of thing, but the only driver I can load in Lucid is 195.36.08 (the 173 driver fails), which is from my understanding a beta driver. The latest production is 190.53 from Nvidia's website. Now is this not a bit crazy for a LTS? Especially considering NVidia just pulled a production driver for Blake's 7 because it was burning out boards: http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=162344
Now if you are packaging a beta driver, then the user (who cannot change to a production driver) has no legal recourse if the board fries, because they are using a beta driver. I understand they have little recourse anyway but I did get my motherboard replaced. So is it possible to use the production driver or at least have the option to revert to it. Or is there something I am missing here? It would also be nice to see if I can suspend and hibernate again using the production driver. -- [lucid regression] random graphics effects after resume from suspend to RAM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510004 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
