Comment 17 for bug 1167018

kai: Thanks for the feedback. Fixing problems starts with the current development release, so that's where I've started. Raring is running older code and the package in my ppatwo repository isn't compatible. It's probably not a good idea to force install like that (not that I'v never done the same--but it's risky). The interface between unity and nux is different between the two versions in a way that's significant to the code involved, by the way.

The process is for the saucy fix to be reviewed and possibly iterate to a fix that's acceptible to a core developer. Once a fix is accepted, in general use in saucy, and works OK for everyone (those with the affected hardware and those using different hardware), it may be possible to consider an SRU (Stable Release Update) for raring.

In the meantime I'd suggest that you restore your raring system to the stock nux raring binary packages.

Thanks for trying the fix and letting us know what happened (and for mentioning your hardware, too).

All: It would be useful for those running saucy to give the fix a try and leave some feedback.
