Any custom settings they've made will be removed. * Specifically for Mythbuntu 12.04 LTS users with NVIDIA graphics, they have a custom DPI setting that gets removed upon upgrade to 14.04. * This has been fixed in utopic by testing if it's the first time that ubuntu-drivers has ran. If so, it sets a first boot flag so that no settings are removed. [Test Case] * This can be reproduced by installing a 12.04 based release, creating an xorg.conf and upgrading to 14.04. If the xorg.conf is renamed then the bug is hit. * This can also be reproduced directly on 14.04 by removing /var/lib /ubuntu-drivers-common/last_gfx_boot, creating an xorg.conf and rebooting. This would simulate the same behavior. [Regression Potential] * Part of the intention of ubuntu-drivers-common is to prevent problems on people who have upgraded and now have hybrid graphics supported cards. This won't make their situation any worse than previously it would have been before ubuntu-driver-common existed. * Any functional users in the field should still remain functional. This only affects the first boot scenario.
