That's great JamesxL, but I've been using Linux for 14 years and I don't
need advice on how to run shell archives.  My point here is that the
out-of-box experience for users of 8.04 "Long Term Support" is bad.
Everybody who installs this thing on Nvidia graphics is going to get the
same bad experience.  The right thing to do would be to ship is with the
Human window borders disabled, and the Clearlooks window borders enabled
instead.

Telling people to install out-of-archive kernel modules from websites is
not a good solution.  Asking people to dig around on Launchpad looking
for workarounds is not a good solution, either.  8.04 should work, out
of the box, with the default settings as shipped.  Right now that's not
true.  It doesn't matter if it's nvidia's fault.
