Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu "Ubuntu Xorg maintainer Bryce Harrington recently demonstrated the BulletProof-X feature that is planned for inclusion in Ubuntu 7.10. BulletProof-X provides a failsafe mode which will ensure that users never have to manually configure their graphics hardware settings from the command line."

Sometimes the tech-savvy nature of the community works against us. The priority of this item has not been high enough to warrant attention until now because a broken graphical subsystem, devastating for the users of most OSes, is just a damned nuisance to us.

Then again, our priorities get a bit screwed, and resources get allocated in the wrong places. This fundamental feature won't ever garner a tenth the attention that the mostly useless Compiz Fusion does.
