Comment 379 for bug 1268257

For anyone who didn't get the message, fixed versions of the the 440 driver (with legacy GPU support) and the 446 driver (which only supports relatively recent GPUs) are now available in the official trusty-proposed repository. A few people (including me) have reported trying them with the 3.13 kernel and getting encouraging results. So, for those of you who cannot wait to have a fix up and running, try trusty-proposed ; for the rest, it looks like the long wait for a fix in the "default distribution" is almost over.
