Hi Robbie,
I was trying out the Unity interface but it failed to start. I
subsequently removed it, since I was trying to diagnose what the issue
was. It turned out to be a kernel issue. I have not yet re-installed
Unity to try it out again, as I felt that this bug was too important.
I have never tried the Nvidia drivers on this machine -- I am loathe to
install non-free drivers.
The point is:
with linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic (2.6.32-24.42) the nouveau
drivers work
with linux-image-2.6.35-20-generic (2.6.35-20.29) the nouveau
drivers do NOT work (as far as my initial debugging has done).
I am happy to perform any tests anyone throws at me.
