Comment 3 for bug 1827228

Hi.
"try the 390 perhaps
or the ubuntu graphics drivers pp". Is this a guess??? Or you knew this is
a fix??? Sorry, I think I was spending/wasting enough time trying to TS
this issue. In some way, I think the Windows system works better, as far
as legacy driver support goes. Or, should I wait for a newer kernel
release and hope they'll get this fixed?

Please advise. Thanks.

--Andrew.
