I upgraded to ubuntu 14.04 on my reasonably late-model desktop from a major name and now my nvidia graphics card doesn't cause the x server to segfault and send me back to a login prompt when rendering certain fonts, but now my keyboard stops working after screen lock about 10% of the time and sometimes half the usb ports will shut down for no reason at all.
This is a little better then when I was hand-editing x configs back in the 90s but overall I'm disappointed.
- girvo 12y agoGosh, I see so many people having issues like this... and get really confused, because I've ran Linux on my laptops for the past 4 years, and they've all worked completely out of the box with whatever version of Ubuntu was the latest at the time! And I don't go out of my way to pick a laptop that supports Linux, I just buy whichever fit my requirements the best. Of course, now I'm just using a rMBP, but yeah, I wonder if I've just been very lucky?
