I confirmed Roger's observation, this bug is still present in Hardy Alpha 5. With the number of 64bit nvidia 8xxx users out there we really should fix this before the full release of Hardy, because although there are workarounds many newbies won't be bothered to go to the time, trouble, and effort to find/implement them (especially since the rival distros - suse, fedora, etc.. - don't have this problem).
If Fabio Papa is right - and it sounds like he probably is - then is there any chance of getting uvesafb into the Hardy in time to fix this problem? If there is any way that a not-overly-technical user like myself can help, then please let me know (Unfortunately I'm underskilled and over- worked so I can't directly implement the fix myself :S) Good luck and keep up the good work, Pat -- [amd64 + nvidia 8xxx] usplash shows nothing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147623 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
