Title:
nvidia-173 doesn't work on Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander
Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-173” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
My nvidia graphic card is GeForce 6150SE nForce 430.
In past only nvidia 173 drivers worked correctly. Nor 304 or others (like
nouveau).
After a fresh new installation of Ubuntu 13.10 I open Software Sources
(software-properties-gtk) and in tab "Additional Drivers" I select the
only one driver called "nvidia-173". Later the first reboot,
everything seems working good, but after turning it off and on again 2
more times, everythings black! Only an underscore blinking in the
upper left. I tried CTRL+ALT+F!, etc. combinations but nothing
happens.
I suspect this problem happens after some Nvidia drivers updates.
Now I use gnome-session-fallback (no effects) and nouveau drivers that
doesn't work properly (1280x1024) and everything appears crushed (5:4
or 4:3 in a 16:9 display) but it's the only way to see ubuntu in
graphic mode.
