Under the Administration menu there should be an option for something like
Drivers or something along those lines. That is where you can
enable/disable proprietary drivers that you have installed.

Re: [LinuxDesktop4i] LinuxDesktop4i Digest, Vol 1, Issue 51 ( Generic
video Driver)
I just install a video driver for my specific card and my system is acting
a little flakey. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04. Can any of you tell me how to
uninstall this and go back to the generic driver.
Thanks,

I have Nvidia 6800GT and have been using the proprietary drivers for it
since 8.04. In fact the generic drivers wouldn't work for me at 8.04 so I
was forced to use the proprietary drivers for it.

Re: [LinuxDesktop4i] Upgrade to 9.10?
DO NOT use proprietary video drivers when upgrading to 9.10! Switch back
to generic video drivers before upgrading. Most of the problems I saw on
the forums was due to problems with drivers for Nvidia and (IIRC) ATI.

Just this week I went from 8.10 to 9.04 and straight to 9.10. The system
seems to be working flawlessly at this point. My VirtualBox that had
seemed to be corrupt at 8.10 is working straight away now. Everything in
tact. I don't think that 9.10 did a mysql database upgrade since I didn't
have to enter my password which I did have to do from the previous two
upgrades. I will be doing some more stuff this weekend and I'll report
back any problems that I see.
You guys say programs are buggy or it crashes... which programs? Are any
crashes hardware related/driver related?

Re: [LinuxDesktop4i] Upgrade to 9.10?
From: Paul Tuohy
Anyone done it yet? Any problems? All working OK?
I did it. Too many problems in applications I used, so I wiped and put
9.04 back on.
