Hi,

I have recently installed Ubuntu Gutsy on my machine.

I'm running Dual Screen with the XOrg drivers (The ATI ones don't work for my card), and have brightness problems with one of the monitors.

This seems to have been fixed:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1082

Can someone please explain how I get hold of the fixed version, and install it ?

To answer my own question ....

The Xorg website has a page listing information for various distros:

This pointed me to the Ubuntu X pages, where I discovered information on getting the latest drivers here:
