[Bug 941172] Re: do-release-update to Precise produces a hardware-not-support-in-Natty warning

I'm not sure if there was some behind-the-scenes discussion about the
wording of the warning message (i.e. a decision to keep the changes to
the text as minor as possible)... but I noticed that the URL given in
the patch that got applied to the lp:update-manager branch (revision
2351) still points to a Wiki page named "UpdateManagerWarning", but the
page that Barry created is no longer found there...

(Also, if indeed it's too late to some fuller explaination of the
situation into the  message for Precise, I'd still say it would be worth
revising the message in post-Precise versions of update-manager-core...)

Title:
  do-release-update to Precise produces a hardware-not-support-in-Natty
  warning

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “update-manager” source package in Precise:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I ran "do-release-update -d" on a Lucid system to upgrade to Precise
  (which downloaded and ran version 0.156.6 of precise.tar.gz).

  As part of the pre-upgrade checking process, I got the following
  message:

    Your graphics hardware may not be fully supported in Ubuntu 11.04.

    The support in Ubuntu 11.04 for your intel graphics hardware is 
    limited and you may encounter problems after the upgrade. Do you want 
    to continue with the upgrade?

  Does this warning still apply to Precise?
