This is disastrous for Canonical/Ubuntu's reputation.... I am aware that it is Nvidia at fault and that is the joys of waiting for a proprietary company to update closed source drivers and adapt them for an opensource project.... but the LEAST Canonical could do if they care about their reputation... is ensure the release is well tested before releasing... ESPECIALLY being an LTS...
The problem though, is that Canonical release to a schedule no matter if the release is ready or not... and that needs to change... Something as important as this Needs to be addressed BEFORE releasing... The Majority of Nvidia users will install the proprietary driver not knowing of the horrors to come.... Release it when MAJOR issues are fixed! Not release Half assed... it's Unprofessional... and not fair that users of an LTS will end up with a broken system even if it isn't Canonical's fault directly... It is simply not acceptable for users to have to wait for updates to fix their broken system "whenever that will happen" kaddy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982485 Title: [regression] Nvidia 295.40: Unity 3D does not work at all with the new nvidia driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/982485/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
