I would like to report that upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 disabled both 3D acceleration and wifi on my Acer Aspire 5100 notebook. Here is an excerpt from lscpi:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200M] 06:02.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR2413 802.11bg NIC (rev 01) Both required proprietary drivers to work properly and none are presently available. It is strange that Jockey will tell me that the fglrx driver is available but I cannot activate it. I am assuming that this is some leftover from the upgrade. It is really unfortunate to loose all that functionality on an otherwise nice notebook. Perhaps in the future new upgrades will actually make things work better, not worse.
