Do you have a *nVIDIA* or *ATI graphics card? Do you want to help ensure
users have a smooth experience if they choose to use the proprietary
drivers?

We are looking for committed volunteers to test nVidia or ATI.
The goal of this testing is to catch regressions early in the cycle, and
fix bugs before they reach a major audience.

If you want to be part of the team you will need:

 1. A computer with an nVIDIA (GeForce 6 or newer) or ATI (R600 or
newer) graphics card
 2. A spare partition on that system
  * If you don't have a spare partition you can easily create one.
 3. One hour of your time per week
 4. An Internet connection

If you want to take part in this adventure, go to:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Testing/ProprietaryDrivers/Oneiric/VideoDrivers
and follow the detailed instructions.

Thanks for helping making Ubuntu even better!

P.S. This project is to test the proprietary drivers. If you're
interested in testing the free drivers, we don't need installation
testing but help is always welcome. Check how at the Ubuntu X team page [1].
