[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 359392] Re: [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd
Well, I totally understand who is seeking for a new distro, maybe one that really is for human beings. Because you favor the geeks, giving them the latest and greatest, 'cause they know what a ppa is and whatever. But you know if you were serious about a distro for human beings, you should have delayed jaunty or at least have it shipped with Intrepid's intel drivers. It's a big let down for everyone that believes in open-source being the future of computing, and sees ubuntu as the biggest hope for spreading linux in the world. But ubuntu's just not there, and maybe never will because it's more concerned about not losing its geek user base, than releasing and operating system for everyone, and perhaps ever will. -- [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ 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
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 997742] Re: remove libvdpau from mplayer dependancies
my card should support vdpau, it's quite a new card with fair performances, the problem is vdpau is buggy and flashplayer tries to use it if it's installed, without a fallback in case it doesn't work. the version I use is the stock one in precise repos. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997742 Title: remove libvdpau from mplayer dependancies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/997742/+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

And the advantage of >fixed 6 month schedules is that you can easily fall back to an earlier >release... Yes, of course an LTS that cannot even play a youtube video togheter with an mp3 because of a pulseaudio bug is the solution for everything.. come on. And of course an unexperienced user that is told to upgrade to a new version of the distro straight in the update manager will not do it because he knows that this could eventually break its system. So if you want to hide the fact that something (not everything) is REALLY wrong in the way things have been done since now you're free to do that, but what I think is that things should be said. I appreciate Andres comment, I honestly think that other distros are not doing any better than ubuntu, but I'm afraid things will not change soon, because these mistakes have always been made, and nobody seems to have learned. I hope the Karmic Koala will prove me wrong.. -- [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. ___ 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
