Thank you for verifying that the problem is still present in Lucid. I have tried to reproduce it on my wife's computer (which has 945GM) with a LiveCD, but that particular model apparently doesn't have this problem. When you upgrade, the old kernels are not uninstalled. That is why you had several kernels to choose from. 2.6.32-9 should be the standard Lucid kernel. I think the hint is called a tooltip. It's okay to use 64-bit. I have that on my laptop as well (on the test/daily-use partition which used to have Karmic and now has Lucid, I have a 32-bit Jaunty one for work that I set up and customised and don't want to change). -- [i945g] freezes shortly after loading desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500686 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
