Comment 7 for bug 1103061

Hi Bryce,

I must apologise for not acknowledging your emails, so thanks very much. I
have got the latest 12.10 on my machine and all is working very well. I
have Chrome, Skype and Dropbox all working perfectly, but I am very scared
to install the 302 updates that are available, because every time I have
done this over the past few weeks, I encountered the display issues. So
unless you suggest otherwise, I will not install any updates for a few
weeks.

Best wishes

Michael Mori
