Hello.

I know, that this bug report is about 'nouveau' module and so on. But since Mr. Jackson Smith described "Settings -> Software & Updates -> Additional Drivers" I would like to ask about one thing: do you still see an option regarding 'intel-microcode' or 'amd64-microcode'? I'm writing about this, because there always was an option to choose microcode etc. (please see 1.)

A couple of weeks ago, about a month ago, I noticed, that there is no microcode option in the "Additional Drivers" tab anymore. There is just one NVIDIA option to choose. Maybe it's related with "Spectre & Meltdown" patches, but I can be wrong. So, could someone check this on his computer? I apologize for asking about such an issue here, but really, I don't know what to do and I'm confused. Is this normal?

Thanks, best regards.
