Thanks and understand.
Actually that is the problem with Linux generally and the point I believe Ubuntu can push the opensource world a big step ahead. The manufacturers need a strong partner speaking with clear words and having some reasonable number of customers behind it.
What I would expect from Ubuntu and that is actually the only one but very big blame. There is written in hardware driver part of menu, that the fglrx driver ais tested by Ubuntu developers and when I use it, it crashes computer to total death (anything except hard reset doesn't work). Actually I am not developer, but I would expected from a good system, that there could be black screen but I will be still able to control the system by keyboard and maybe get the command line with the open-source driver or anything but not lose the data. ;-)
If Ubuntu should be for a normal people (manufacturers will have to take claims more seriously) there should be tested with at least some HW and ther should be a database, where I would be able to find HW with easy getting knowledge if this HW is tested (It will work without any problems) or at least which problems are facing the users. So I stupid user can look in this DB and see, that ATI will not work with 3D, fglrx driver has so many bugs (list) and look that these bugs were reported to AMD months or years ago and response is fuck-off. Getting access to this DB even from HW driver menu instead of note, that i was tested by Ubuntu developers, AMD will get publicity, that already will wake them up. - Anb I as a stupid user will look into the HW DB and buy card, which is tested by Ubuntu. I as a user will be happy, because of my PC will not crash and will tell everywhere, that Ubuntu is perfectly correct. With correct I mean, that it not work perfect with any HW but will know, that if I use the tested one, I will have NO problem. And I will buy it.
SORRY FO BEING SO LONG BUT WITHOUT DOING THIS, UBUNTU WILL NEVER BE FOR NORMAL USERS AND hw MANUFACTURER WILL NOT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY.
