Hello everyone. I want to report that I installed Intrepid Alpha-6 on my optiplex 745 (out of frustration) and all the problems went away! The wide screen monitor now has the correct resolution, and all the system freezes, etc., are gone.
Here is a tip in case you give Intrepid a try: most likely your internet connection will fail, if you have a static IP address. This is a known bug. The current workaround is to, in synaptic, remove all four packages that appear as installed if you search for "network manager". Upon restarting, the system will use the previous settings and the connection will be reestablished. Apparently one has to do this with every upgrade that reinstalls network manager. -- Manuelita Ureta -- Hard lock booting/logging out/restarting [Q965] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220135 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
