Re: [tlug] Proprietary Video Card Driver? (was Not understanding how updated kernels work)

No, this is Ubuntu we are talking about. The whole idea of their setup is that the user doesn't really need to know and the "update everything" button should update your system without breaking anything ... just as what should be the case when you say "apt-get update" in a stable debian distro : it is not allowed to break anything.
