Yesterdays updates killed X hard for me, and various kernels worked so-so but eventually I got everything back up using yesterdays daily 3.11-kernel. Gnome-shell is smooth etc but I have the...
Today I got 1.14.2, I tried with todays daily kernel but nvidia-325 didn't build(header error). So, I tried with 3.10.0-2 from the repos instead and nvidia-325 did build allright, so now I'm running...
Nvidia-325, good you mentioned that one, forgot about it. Yes, it runs fine too on 3.10.0-999-generic from the first of July. But now I don't have the patience to test more kernels today :P
Well, vanilla Ubuntu probably has much more QA than Ubuntu Gnome which may explain why it is a more stable base even for installing gnome-shell on it. That is as of now, the quality of Ubuntu Gnome...
It works fine here(1.14.1) with Nvidia 319.32, but only on the daily kernel from 0107, any later daily kernel fails to build the nvidia-blob and the official 3.10.0-1 freezes during boot even without...
Yes, I did the same, tried Ubuntu Gnome-Edition first which barely worked for anything and then installed plain Ubuntu from the same daily-day and installed gnome-shell in it which worked excellent....
Well, well, I'm back at the latest: gnome3, gnome3-staging and gnome3-testing fully updated. At least I can post this, so to some extent it do work ;-)
gnome-shell 3.8.2 with Nautilus 3.6.3 was very stable for me, no issues at all. Now it's gnome-shell 3.8.3 with Nautilus 3.8.2 in the repos and it crashes a lot, also apport have started to freeze...
Yes, seems a little too often, but then he get's to test the installer each time which is good :-)
For myself I usually keep the same base install for two distribution revisions ie I reinstall...
Fallback? What fallback, there's always the commandline, I should go ;-)
On a more serious note, I stopped using the Gnome3 ppa:s since it got weird beyond repair ie froze the whole box including...
usb-modeswitch have been conflicting with usb-modeswitch-data for a couple of weeks, a possible solution is to downgrade usb-modeswitch to a older version which matches the current...
Great post, exactly my opinion! :-)

The only way Chrome/Chromium is better than Firefox is in handling horribly coded IE6-dependent sites, otherwise Firefox is pretty much better in everything and has better extensions. Also, Mozilla...
There's no PPA for 3.10, but it can be downloaded manually here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/ It will install against the latest Nvidia-blob which IS in the normal...
Works fine here, smooth, but I'm using the Nvidia-blob again and a fairly powerful gpu in the GTX650Ti. Yesterdays Ubuntu-daily updated to todays and with ubuntu-gnome-desktop slammed on it using...
Well, I run 64-bit and it seems rather common for things to be fixed later in 64-bit which is strange since all desktop/laptop-processors have been 64-bit for nearly ten years ... Otherwise, the...
There is an updated version of 319.23 in the repos now, which installs against kernel 3.10. No need for xorg-edgers anymore if running the latest kernel. Sadly, moving from Gallium to Nvidia under...
Well, if not doing any gaming, the Gallium3D-driver really is VERY smooth nowadays. Actually better than the Nvidia-blob in 2D. Last time I tried it it was awful, not anymore. And it has the...
Thank you very much! :D That did it!

Well, I tried both RC4 and todays daily, after adding xorg-edgers so did Nvidia actually install but it didn't work. Both kernels booted alright, but hung on the gnome login screensaver(running...
I installled the whole gnome-shell stuff up to 3.9.2 on my incrementally upgraded 13.10, switched to GDM of course, it works rather well even though I had to make a few adjustments in...
I've tried numerous methods but for some reason Spotify still freezes rapidly when playing music on Raring Ringtail.
BUT, I got myself a hint from the Spotify forums where SuSe-Linux was...
The Spotify Linux-client has been working just fine since 12.04 and before, but have recently in the Raring-cycle begun freezing ALWAYS after a while. This is very bad as Spotify is THE music source....
I will never use Nouveau until it can do proper 3D(it will take long before that happens, if ever) :P
