Must be nearing 12.10 beta time...

[NoOp]

12.04 updates tonight: 69 updates have been selected. 138.2 MB will be
downloaded.

Woops, I see a new kernel in there:

Installed version: 3.2.0.30.32
Available version: 3.2.0.31.34

 - I guess that means I get to reinstall the new nvidia 96.43.23 driver
that I finally got working last night.

[ nvidia-173 and nvidia-96 uninstallable on Precise]

BTW: for those of you that are stuck with nouveau because of nvidia-96,
you might want to install the new nvidia 96.43.23. Doubled my
performance on 12.04 & now this desktop is 'almost' comparable to my
11.10 desktop (both GNOME Classic/gnome-shell).
