Comment 68 for bug 660596

Hi people,

I found something in ubuntuusers Wiki, what could solve this issue:

look here: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates

There is a newer driver available. Perhaps this could bring a solution
for these things. I will test that and come back with a message, if this
works. If yes, then this would be a big help.

Greetings and until then,
Linuxexperte
