This is right? All Intel based GPU (like 855 ...) PCs will not be supported by the developers? It's been some time since I only use Ubuntu and rarely use XP. I'm very accustomed to using only the Ubuntu, I did not want to stop using it, and is not in my plans to buy another PC ....

OK let me ask something.

I have 3 different Kernel on grub at the Boot

the 2 new ones don't BOOT the stop on black screen
and the oldest one Boot and the PC work but i cant play videos on PC because they crash but I can play video on Youtube
on Firefox ,but I open Full screen of video from another site that i not remember and the PC crash again.

>OK on my newest Kernel I cant boot but i can go to recovery>failsafe>and i can login but without graphical,they not start the X
can i go on this and try the Thoer (#168) suggestion ?
This gonna Brooke my oldest work KERNEL?

If I try the Thoer (#168)They gonna delete my oldest Kernel?
because everitime they upgrade the kernel the keep the before kernel and purge the others oldest...or somthing like this and i have 3 maybe wen I type upgrade on terminal they gonna automatic purging the oldest?

Which way should I take?
try it on newest (not working Kernel) by command line...
or try this in the kernel that works?(My fear is it stop to work, since it at least I can boot using the PC and even with limitations)
Tell me about the risks .. Thanks for everything.Thanks for everything.
