Lucid alpha 2 works well for my COMPAQ EVO N610C, EXCEPT for the notifications which have lines and oddities on them. The System Monitor works well. I can change visual effects perfectly.
On Karmic, I had to install sun java (not open java) in order to be able to switch visual effect modes. In Karmic, without sun java, I had to leave the visual effects in "normal", if I went to "none" visual effects, my open office would not be able to show buttons and check boxes correctly. I had to switch to "none" effects in order to show videos in Karmic in Open Office Impress. Once in "none" visual effects mode, I'd be trapped there, and could not return to "normal" without a reinstall. In Lucid alpha 2 I found open office to function normally. So apart from the notifications being messy, Lucid seems to solve my problems with this issue. Attached screenshot of notification issue. ** Attachment added: "Lucid alpha 2 notification - compaq evo n610c" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39547259/notification%20under%20alpha%202.png -- (32MB) certain windows drawn garbled when XAA is used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426582 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
