I have reported for about 2+ weeks, since the release of 1.11 (pre 1.11.1) a bug I have been having with the graphics. The Lindens NEVER replied except to send me confirmation mail of receiving my report. Come on guys! How long does it take???? I finally got fed up so much with the "timely replies" or lack thereof and decided to browse the net to see what could be the problem cause I remembered that a few releases ago (version 1 or earlier) they told us to make sure we have downloaded the latest drivers for our video cards.

Well I did upgrade it then. They did NOT tell us to this time.. but, the cause of my prim spiking all over my screen was just that.. there was yet another release for my video driver for my exact system running my exact software...
So I am letting you guys know, in case the Lindens don't tell you (and I know some of you out there is having the exact same prob as I did cause I heard you chat in SL about it) Go to the web side of your computer setup, eg Dell, Compaq etc, search for the name of your video card and then look to see if there is any newer drivers available. In my case it was Dell Presario 4700 and Radeon X300 SE. I logged in and I FINALLY have CLEAR VISION after weeks of not being able to see much and also being so POd that my Sweetie and I were arguing about the least little thing.

Thank you SL for not helping this lil ole lady with her problem :-/

P.S.: BTW I am a lil ole lady too in RL and at least I can figure out what was causing my probs when you who are younger couldn't!!!!

Warning! NEVER get a granny upset or ignore her LOL She will come back and gum ya to death!

Moved to Technical Issues.

Bug reports will hardly get a reply unless an entry is made for a clear, reproducible bug.

Sorry to hear about your problems. Support is the right place to ask for help. :)
