I attempted installing the latest kernel (v3.10-rc3-saucy), but I ran into a bit of trouble. I got the error message as follows:

As per the linked page, I understand that this might be from conflicts with the nvidia driver. Should I uninstall these as recommended, and proceed? I didn't try this immediately, since I couldn't work out how I would reinstall them after testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1181660 Title: PowerDevil selects the incorrect brightness interface To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1181660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
