That version is no more supported; please open a new bug report if the actual archive found version also has the same issue.

I have the Ubuntu 10.04 2.6.32-22-generic, and 2.6.32-22-preempt kernels installed that nvidia-current 195.36.15-0Ubuntu3 works well with. The nvidia-current driver didn't work if I tried to boot to the 2.6.31-10-rt kernel, therefore I upgraded it through bojo42's PPA for RT Kernels ( https://launchpad.net/~bojo42/+archive/rt ). After synaptic processing completed, Notice area showed that nvidia-current failed to install. I know that I compiled my nvidia-current to the standard 2.6.32-22-generic, and 2.6.32-22-preempt kernels, and that the 2.6.33-rt I installed is a newer non-matching number kernel. But I have never had problems with compiling nvidia proprietary drivers for this machine under Ubuntu Hardy, and so expected that the Lucid - Nvidia Hardware Drivers would work in a similar manner. I'm at a loss for solutions at this point - after googling nvidia- current - the ubuntu forums - reading bug reports -etc. not much matching my current situation - probably because Ubuntu 10.04 is so new ? ( Excerpt from bojo42's PPA ) Ubuntu 10.04 uses a 2.6.32 based kernel with graphic drivers from 2.6.33, but for 2.6.32 there are no rt patches and so Ubuntu does only ship an old 2.6.31 based realtime kernel. This PPA provides a 2.6.33 based realtime kernel so you can have for example the full graphic experience of Ubuntu 10.04 and even some new features of 2.6.33. The kernel itself is a plain vanilla 2.6.33.X with the latest rt patchset and configuration is based on the matching 2.6.33.X build from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline plus some changes for realtime usage. So if you run into any problems check if got them with the mainline kernel as well, if that isn't the case you know that it's specific to the realtime patches and configuration. In case i miss an update of the rt patchset (http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/) just ping me: https://launchpad.net/~bojo42/+contactuser BTW if you use a rt kernel on a desktop machine, you will notice that PulseAudio randomly crash at audio playback. See Bug #367671 for this. ############################# I'm not sure how to proceed with a solution here - Is Ubuntu - Debian, or Nvidia causing the driver not to compile for multiple kernel versions ? In any case, it sure is not very user-friendly.
