Bug Description

The graphics have been awful so far with the Jaunty install. I upgraded from Intrepid using the Update Manager. Graphics were fine before, now--not so much. I'm pretty much a noob, so if i need to add more please be kind and give me a heads up and just nudge me in the write direction to post what I need to.

I'm not sure what the package I would be referring to. I think it has a lot to do with driver issues. I attempted to remove the drivers and reinstall; however, it has not worked.

Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04

@toshiba:~$ glxgears

Hi Bryce--

I attempted to follow the directions in the link you gave me...but I don't think it worked. Like I said i'm newish to this whole thing....

this is what I was able to get [attached]. If this is not correct should I just join freenode and ask for help?

From what I can tell...All that was wrong seems to been fixed with the newest kernel.

Thanks for the help... this can be closed.
