Comment 10 for bug 428477

I whole heartedly concur with this group.

One of the things that kept me from Ubuntu for years, was the lack of good graphics / video capability.

Graphics / video has got to be one of the three most important issues in the use of most computers.

The visual sense is more needed and relied on then any other.

One of my biggest struggles with Jaunty and now Karmic is resolutions, refresh rates and video speed.

Why even bother to upgrade to Karmic if video / graphics are not improved.

I have lost anything over 1024x768 dpi and 75 Hz refresh rate.

I can actually see my monitor flickering at 75 Hz, which not only hurts my eyes but also makes me tired, causes

me to slow down in my work on PCs. Most other OSs get me to 1600x1200@60 1024x768@85!

I have yet to see a bug report or answer that would resolve this extremely important issue.

Literally 1000s of Ubuntu Jaunty and Karmic users are affected.

So, developers, please, get in the Ubuntu circle and do the video / graphics Ubuntu magic dance, to fix this!

Thank you very much,
