I've just done a clean install of hardy alpha3 (+ updates) and the problem definitely persists. In its current state, my laptop has been almost unusable for important work under ubuntu for far too long, and i've about had it. It even locked up the first time I tried to post here. Anyway, if it isn't resolved by the time hardy is released, I'm afraid I'll have to abandon ubuntu. While it is nice to have the new splashy 3d features, when systems crash with the severity, frequency, and duration before a solution we have here, I feel that things should be rolled back to the last know stable version. Yes, it may require other packages to be downgraded, but IT WILL WORK. The other solution is to add a notice during installation "Sorry, Ubuntu does not work with your hardware. Please install Windows or try another distribution."
(Sorry for the rant -- not that helpful I know, but as I said, I've basically had it. I do (did) like ubuntu and have been basically linux-only for a decade and I hate having to think "maybe I should boot up Windows to get some work done since at least it won't crash" :) ) Good luck tracking this issue down! -- X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108527 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
