[Bug 261816] Re: nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS
Ciao Albert Thanks for your quick answer, and sorry that I did actually oversee the bug title. Meanwhile I have succeeded installing the nvidia 177 beta driver with jockey, but it took me a while to figure out which version of the driver supports which graphic card, and which driver is alpha, beta or stable. Maybe there should be more text in synaptics describing in depth a more detailed status of the driver (the card coverage on the other hand is very well explained). Well, ok, I admit that I could spend some time searching the internet about that ... One major lowdown at the moment is, that if I try to change the screen settings either with displayconfig-gtk or gnome-display-properties my display gets corrupted again and cannot be set back. I have to uninstall the nvidia driver, reboot and reinstall the nvdia driver. Fortunately, using nvidia-settings for changing the display setting works like a charm! But this I should report somewhere else :-) Thanks again, Alberto! Keep up the good work!

[Bug 261816] Re: nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS
Thanks for your work Alberto ! It broke for me Preparing to replace nvidia-glx-177 177.68-0ubuntu1 (using .../nvidia-glx-177_177.70-0ubuntu1_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement nvidia-glx-177 ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-glx-177_177.70-0ubuntu1_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so', which is also in package xserver-xorg-core -- sudo apt-get install -f Setting up nvidia-177-kernel-source (177.70-0ubuntu1) ... Removing all DKMS Modules Done. Adding Module to DKMS build system driver version= 177.70 Doing initial module build Installing initial module Done. ;) -- I also noticed on Friday that mesa is also using libglx.so, so it seems to be a trublemaker... I have NOT uninstalled 177.70 from nVidia if that maybe disturbs this !

André: 1) the method which you suggested will break some symlinks created by the packages in Ubuntu. Be careful. 2) proprietary drivers are not loaded by default unless specified in the xorg.conf 3) without a log or further information on your system (you will have to reproduce the problem) I'm afraid I can't help you. 4) this is not the right place to report your problem. Feel free to file a new bugreport. -- nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261816 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 261816] Re: nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS
Since updating to intrepid I NEVER succeded installing the nvidia drivers for my Geforce 6 Series through the jockey tool. Activating one of the four proposed drivers (173, 177, 71, 96) always seems to install it - but never to activate it!! Restarting the gdm or the system always led to the anoying X reconfiguring screen. And even there, selecting the nvidia driver - installed only seconds before with jockey - disables gdm from starting up correctly. H, so the nvidia driver has not been installed and activated, even though the jockey tool told me so before??? Very anoying! Another strange thing is that newer versions of the x-server don't seem to need a xorg.conf file anymore - but the nvidia does for its option, card, and monitor settings!? Very strange!! Mabe there lies the big trouble of the x-server and nvdia playing smoothly together ... Luckily, downloading and installing the nvidia driver manually always succeded!! Hopefully, the jockey version in the final intrepid release will work a 100 percent. Here are my steps to install the nvidia driver, which of course you have to repeat every time you install a new kernel: 1. Download, save an make executable NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.67-pkg1.run. 2. Go to console with CTRL+ALT+F1, login, and kill gdm with "sudo killall gdm". 3. Uninstall the old nvidia driver with "sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.67-pkg1.run --uninstall". 4. IMPORTANT: Delete ALL xorg.config files with "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg*". 5. Install the nvidia driver with "sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.67-pkg1.run". (6. Remove everything of nvidia and jockey in synaptic - exept maybe nvidia-settings.) Hope this helps a little!

Graham: that happened because the .prerm file of 177.68 was still there and was affected by the problem. The upgrade from 177.70 to newer releases should no longer cause this bug. -- nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261816 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 261816] Re: nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS
Earlier today I received both the Nvidia update from 177.68 to 177.70 and the kernel update from 2.6.26-5 to 2.6.27-2. Upon restarting the system I found that the Nvidia driver 177.70 had been built for kernel 2.6.26-5 not 2.6.27-2. Reinstalling nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 solved the problem. -- nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261816 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 - 177.70-0ubuntu1 --- nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 (177.70-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low * Add driver 178.70: * Added support for the following new GPUs: o GeForce 9800 GTX+ o GeForce 9800 GT o GeForce 8100P o nForce 780a SLI o nForce 750a SLI o Quadro FX 770M o Quadro NVS 160M o Quadro NVS 150M * Improved support for RENDER operations with the same source and destination; this should enhance performance in some situations, e.g. when dragging Plasma applets in KDE4. * Fixed a text rendering performance regression that affected GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs. * Fixed a regression that caused text to be missing or corrupt on GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs. * Fixed a regression responsible for false negatives during SLI video bridge detection attempts after X server restarts. * Fixed a bug that resulted in AGP FW/SBA settings and overrides being applied incorrectly when using the Linux kernel's AGP GART driver. * Fixed a bug that caused initialization of the builtin AGP GART driver (NvAGP) to fail. * Fix (LP: #261816) Replace "remove" with "remove|upgrade" in the case loop in nvidia-177-kernel-source.prerm so that older versions of the drivers are removed in case of upgrade -- Alberto Milone (tseliot) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thu, 28 Aug 2008 22:22:50 +0200 ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- nvidia: Multiple versions in DKMS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261816 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
