I have previously written about Compaq CQ61 with Nvidia graphics drivers, and the problem with 6 screens. See post. If you have a similar setup and solved the problem as described, then there should be no problem upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04.

Ubuntu 10.10, and a new poll..
Ubuntu 10.10 is soon to be released. What's your opinion? Does it still rock, will it kick Windows out the office door (again!), or is it getting more "Window-ish" with bugs and features going hand in hand?

Digikam segmentation fault fixed in Digikam 1.1.0?
Update: This post now have a step-by-step instruction on how to install the latest Digikam version on Ubuntu 9.10
It seems like 1.1.0 takes care of several bugs that caused the previous version to crash. You may download a .deb package if you are in a hurry. I tried to install it, but unfortunately the package breaks the "Showphoto". Whatever that means. I guess that the Ubuntu (or Kubuntu) package is too different to allow the OS to just upgrade right away. I'll look into this as soon as I have the chance. But I will also look forward to see Ubuntu 10.04, and hope that the new Digikam version is included in the repositories.
