I am not a stupid person, but I have still had trouble in the past getting my Video card to work, this is why it is so important to install to have these drivers installed by default in the new Ubuntu.

Ubuntu needs to be attractive to new users switching from Windows and the Video Card drivers have got to be one of the most important devices to get working on a new system.

As well as this bullet proof X, it is so so needed.

I cannot understand the fuss about it.

How many new users have trouble with their video cards?
How many new users complain they cant get a certain resolution on their desktop?

Read these three threads to see what the fuss is. No point in starting hundreds more posts on the same issue:
