(With nouveau, at some time or other, the screen "crashes" and I have to hard-shutdown) This time, with 16.10, I first noticed only 3 screen resolutions possible - max being 1024x768.

So it had correctly removed nouveau, but did not add nvidia-304. Un-installing nvidia-304 gets me nouveau in lsmod, it finds the VGA monitor for xrandr and Monitor Settings, lshw just shows "*-display", and I can use up to 1600x1200 - but sooner or later I have to do a hard-shutdown because of the vidio-"crash". I just tried using "Additional Drivers" to switch to nvidia-304, but with exactly the same result. Before I removed the package, I looked through the system logs, and copied out that which looked relevant. (I will attach the full file of log-excerpts that I created.) What seemed most important were: "nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel" "(EE) NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module." "(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module-specific error, 0)" Can anyone say why nvidia-304 appears to install, but never makes it into the kernel, and how I can fix this situation? [Also, I know that it may not be nvidia-304's fault that it cannot be saved/loaded, that some other package for some reason could cause a perfectly-good-nvidia-304 package not to be installed/loaded in the kernal, but I don't know enough how things work to know against what other package this bug should be filed...] I'm grasping at straws here - I actually considered booting from my 16.04 Lubuntu install to try and grab its nvidia-304 package, but since I have for the first time installed 16.10 as a 64-bit OS, I don't suppose the 32-bit pkg. I could come up with would be compatible with it... ---------------------------------------------------- scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS:~$ uname -a Linux scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS 4.8.0-26-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 18 14:39:52 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS:~$ lsb_release -dsc Ubuntu 16.10 yakkety scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS:~$ echo $DESKTOP_SESSION Lubuntu nvidia-304 version: nvidia-current_304.132-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb nvidia-304_304.132-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 Package: nvidia-304 (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.8.0-26.28-generic 4.8.0 Uname: Linux 4.8.0-26-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: LXDE Date: Tue Oct 25 13:07:39 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-10-20 (5 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 16.10 "Yakkety Yak" - Release amd64 (20161012.1) SourcePackage: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) modified.conffile..etc.modprobe.d.nvidia-304_hybrid.conf: [deleted] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1636582/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
