[Bug 614088] Re: unity should give an error to the user when not supported by the driver/graphic card

[Didier Roche]

@Yuri, we change the default user session to GNOME is we can't land
unity, so autologin will work too.

** Also affects: ubuntu-translations
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

  I was testing Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.10 Alpha 3 and have found that
  it does not fall back to a 2D interface if 3D fails like UNE 10.04 did.
  This means that any hardware that doesn't support 3D graphics will not
  be usable with Ubuntu Netbook Edition.
  
  This can be reproduced by booting the netbook edition ISO in an
  environment that only supports 2D graphics such as within VirtualBox and
  choosing "Try Ubuntu Netbook 10.10".  You are brought to a blank
  wallpaper with no error message, no fallback to 2D mode, or fallback to
  the standard Gnome Desktop.

+ ----------

+ The new strings are from a dialog:
+ Title:
+ "No required driver detected for unity."
+ Text:
+ "You will need to choose the Ubuntu Desktop session once you select your user name."
