Has anyone tried the 8.04 version? i have a dual boot ... do i just click on upgrade button in 7.10 ?? or will this method mess up my grub ?

I have no idea about that. Does Wubi allows us to download 8.04?

No it wont.

ive tried on my system, its clean install.. guess what?

after finish installation, there is no display.. just dark screen. seems it does not support ati hd series at all. 7.10 better, at least there is display b4 i messed up with ati catalyst.. lol

works fine on my inspiron 6400, just messed up the wifi led but installing the backports fixed that

Installation works fine on Intel Mac. Still doing some testing on it.

any tried using 8.04 under virtualbox?

8.04 worked for my laptop (Acer 4720z), only thing was the wireless card

I did just that click on the upgrade button in 7.10, it screws up my display. I had to do a clean reinstall with Linux Mint Daryna and lost all my torrents in progress..

Ubuntu 8.04 works fine on my pc.
less buggy.

hi there, may i know what graphic card u using?

me too..
but i install it using WUBI..
more easier..
huhu~

what's new in 8.04 that is worth upgrading? My 7.10 is still working fine.

ah. my dual monitor cant work on 8.04

using geforce 7400

mine is working fine .. its my first time installing linux ... only use in my class last time ... i install in my 4+ years pc ... on intel celeron .. ddr 256MB and graphic card agp fx55** (dun remember) ... running smoothly ..

only use for torrent for now ... the best thing is .. so far i have no problem .. since everything is just clicking ... can do all the compiz and emerald no prob ... but abit lag la when i pun many effect ... i love it ..

juz installed seems my 9600gt still unsupported......
others juz owrk fine for me

aha 8.04 works for me.. the cd arrived yesterday.. lol but i long installed it even b4 that...

anyway the most significant change i found is better driver support,
eg in my case it recognized my USB Wifi Dongle without any third party installs (a standard Broadcom chipset, previously required to manually compile the driver from source)

PS: I'm using and old gc ATi9200SE no probs there

My desktop can't be enabled after upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04. Luckily i reinstalled the latest binary driver from nvidia and it works again.

It boots up much faster than the previous gutsy 7.10.

i updated my laptop for this 8.04 but after that, my wireless is not working. probably some issues with broadcom. i have to redo the wireless setting all over again

any1 plz help me
got driver for 9600gt?
