[Bug 1747211] Re: gparted won't display with multiple screens available

[Hans Joachim Desserud]

Thanks for testing, Nathan. In that case I'm marking this as a duplicate
of bug 1713313.

>I presume that this "additional drivers" option will come in 18.04LTS?

I assume 18.04 will offer newer drivers and support for newer hardware
in 18.04, but I don't know about that card specific, sorry.


Curtis: Could you please add a comment about that on bug 1713313. There is some discussion (and I fell off it quite quickly), but it doesn't seem like it has been mentioned already.
