Works fine here. As always, hardware support is tricky.

  Not only that, accelerated 3D video hardware is as tricky as it gets. Hats off to the open source developers who attempt it, often having to reverse engineer some of the most complex hardware known to man. Am I missing some context here? Why is a nouveau driver crash front page news?

    It's not a nouveau crash -- the bug report has reports from people using ATI OSS, nouveau, intel, and nvidia blob drivers (at least).

  It works fine for me, too. I don't understand why anecdotes of problems are seen as interesting data points (for anyone other than the developers attempting to improve the software), especially in a community of technical people who presumably have some decent grasp on probability. This could be explained just by buggy hardware, or hard drive corruption, or any number of things. It's also not unique to Ubuntu. See also: 1. My iPhone 4S crashed randomly when I got it. 2.
