I want to say "Thanx!" I am on a Dell Latitude D800 with nVidia GeForce4 Go 4200 Ti AGP8.
Upon a first try yesterday night, I could not use the 96xx driver and Enable Desktop Effects. (I ended up with a corrupted xorg.conf file) This morning I have done a complete reinstall using the beta ISO. On first boot after the install the update manager said there was a ton of updates that were needed. I updated. (Took hours!) After the update it asked for a reboot. I did it. Checked updates again. No more... I went to restricted manager and saw the 96xx installed but not in use. I checked it to ON. I rebooted... hoping to not see a blank screen again... Rebooted fine! Although I do not see an nVidia white, logo screen, it was obvious it was working and the Restricted Manager said "In Use" as well. I rebooted just to make sure xorg.conf would not be corrupted. Reboot went fine. I enabled Desktop Effects. Almost immediately I got a requester to keep current or Previous settings, something I did not see before when it would fail... I said Keep Current, and checked on the show desktop on cube. I rebooted twice to verify it was solid....... It is now solid for me. Thanx again!!! zeddock -- Desktop-effect does not enable cube https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89786 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
