Ubuntu – 12.04 Stability, Compatibility and Operational Problems

12.04aticompatibilityfglrx

Today I installed Ubuntu 12.04 a full 5 times. But the continuous output of nonsense errors.

First, let me give hardware information;

HP Compaq 6735s Laptop;

  • Amd Trion X2 Mobile 64Bit Precessor (2.2 ghz)
  • 4 Gb Ram
  • 512 MB Ati Mobility Radeon HD 3200 GPU

All the installation attempts, the ATI fglrx driver has failed. The screen is now frozen in striate. Sometimes it does not turn on and reset take a black screen.

2- Next to installation the software center not opened.

3- I tried to install again. This time playing with compiz-manager broken. Opened one more desktop wallpaper, and it seems only. Desktop does not seem.

4- encrypted home folder and I saw the extreme performance issues.

12.04 version of Ubuntu is very unstable and constantly freezes, crashes. AMD-ATI-based computer to use in particular is terrible.

I had to install Debian now. In the meantime, while the installation of hard-disks are perceived too late.

Most importantly, does not working error-reporting programs. Unable to send a bug report.

Programs that failed version of Ubuntu, 12.04;

  1. Compiz Fusion (so crashed and does not stable)
  2. Home Encrypting Program (so slow)
  3. Amd-Ati Driver Poor Support (particularly FGLRX awful)
  4. Too much stability problem
  5. Error reporting does not working programs
  6. 5:10 Unity unstable

How can I report problems I have ubuntu team ?
Thank you.

You can report bugs to Launchpad, but are these really bugs? Please can you tell us if you are new to Ubuntu, and then we can guide you further. From what you have said I would suggest you try to install the previous version of Ubuntu, 11.10, which is very stable indeed. But don't give up!

Update 8th May: I think everyone here will sympathise with you and your problems, but in defence of Ubuntu and the great bunch of guys working FREE to bring it to us, Ubuntu 12.04 is still a little guy, and so it is best not to jump the gun; as with the previous versions of Ubuntu, the team will try to iron out problems. I would strongly suggest that you go back to version 11.10 for a few months, and then upgrade when things have settled down more. Please don't desert Ubuntu, please support it for what it is.
