That's because you spent the extra dough in the ultrasharp monitor, with its built-in hub. I'm afraid that's money well spent ... how I envy you. >> I could not test it for more than an instant, but I'll take a better >> look at it this evening This evening I've been trying with a cheapie hub, and Dapper worked just fine, for quite a long time, with no problems. Then I upgraded it to Edgy, and it also worked (though the upgrade botched the setup of the nVidia drivers). However, it is a pain in the ass to work that way, because the initialisation of the hub by the BIOS is really unreliable, and seems to work one time out of ten. Most of the times I am left with flickering lights in the hub and no keyboard response until Linux starts and initializes the USB hardware correctly -- or if not correctly, at least a little better. Maybe a better hub would do better -- Iago says above that the built in hub of the Dell Ultrasharp monitor works well. -- Mouse pointer freezes in Dell Dimension E521 / nForce 430 https://launchpad.net/bugs/67734 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
