[Bug 180417] Launcher icons shifted on fullscreen games
Public bug reported: When a game or other program is run in fullscreen with a different resolution than the desktop, all of the launchers and applets are shifted to the extreme right when the game is closed. This happens even if the launchers are locked. ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Launcher icons shifted on fullscreen games https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180417 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
[Bug 96430] Re: MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631)
The Restricted Drivers Manager needs to correctly identify the GeForce MX420/440 cards and earlier and download the new-legacy 9631 drivers and not the new beta 9755 drivers. This is especially important as a huge number of laptops run these cards. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://launchpad.net/bugs/96430 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 96430] Re: MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631)
The only problem I see with this is the restricted drivers manager. If indeed the 9631 driver will be included, the manager needs to detect it properly for the correct cards. On the other hand, in the case of say, my laptop with an mx440, the restricted drivers manager will give me an option to install the nvidia driver, which right now would be a false positive since the exclusion of the proper driver, essentially breaking X. If the proper driver is excluded, the restricted drivers manager needs to make the distinction and not provide the option to install the nvidia driver and stick with nv. I think the matter is more or less, how to deal with correct detection and installation than whether or not to include the driver officially. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://launchpad.net/bugs/96430 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ben: : A) We already said we'd include the drivers for feisty. Actually it was only stated that it was "very likely." : B) This is proprietary software. We have no control over what the vendor does. We do our best, but these are the breaks. If you don't like this sort of thing happening, complain to nVidia, not us. We didn't decide to drop support for the chipsets in question. I don't think anyone is complaining here, just concerned. I think when the decision is made to include a solution to have desktop effects, etc, in conjunction with proprietary drivers, there will be many concerns, especially when there are a lot of users of the proprietary product involved. I think it would be easier to explain exactly what is happening with this situation instead of being defensive; no one blames Ubuntu here. I would like to add that it is very nice to hear that the 96xx drivers are going to be included. : We just provided the latest two drivers that nVidia had available on their web site (7184 and 9755). If they had posted links to three drivers, we'd have provided that from the beginning. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_archive.html : There really is nothing more to say. -- MASTER: Request for new-legacy nvidia drivers (9631) https://launchpad.net/bugs/96430 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
