I just installed 12.04 beta2 and the pci=bios solution works flawlessly under 32bit. After the initial installation you edit the grub settings and add the pci=bios option, then after update-grub you can install the nvidia drivers.
In a terminal type: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub look whether there already is an existing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" and change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="pci=bios", if it doesn't exist then just add the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="pci=bios" to the file and save it. type sudo update-grub, install the Nvidia drivers and restart your computer - it should work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661248 Title: PCI Race Condition with COMPAL FL90 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/system76/+bug/661248/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
