True. I installed Ubuntu fine with my 6800, just no accelleration. I really didn't notice the lack of accelleration until I tried some OpenGL screensavers.

[Bug 43252] Re: Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards
I ran into this problem while installing Kubuntu, and I have no idea how to disable acceleration. Can you explain how, please? I thought Linux didn't support my card yet, and was going to give up until someone helped me out. I think many people hitting this problem will be like me, and will just think that Ubuntu is broken, or that Linux doesn't support my hardware yet. It would be a good idea to have a lowest common denominator for the installation.

[Bug 43252] Re: Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards
Hi: Thank you for making Ubuntu available to People! My On Mother Board Video is SIS Based, but my AGP x 8 Card is an NVidia 6200. I've tried many many times to install it into Ubuntu, but each time I run into a ton of errors, I don't know the meanings of. Then the Nvidia Drivers cause problems for the SIS Drivers when I remove the AGP Card. The older GLX NVidia driver does not work for the 6200 NVidia Card. Please include this under bug 43252. The Mother board is a ASROCK K7S41 GX/ It is as though the Hardware Detection at boot up does not work. It keeps on trying to download upgrades with the NVidia Drivers, instead of the SIS Video Drivers, now that the Nvidia 6200 card is not in the Computer. The video Works, but the driver is the wrong one!

[Bug 43252] Re: Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards
This is a nasty bug. I have not recommended Ubuntu to many of my friends because of this install/liveCD bug. Many other distro's also have this problem. The only one that I have used lately that doesn't is SuSe 10.1. Trying safe graphics doesn't help. The only way to install is in text mode. -- Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards https://launchpad.net/bugs/43252 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 43252] Re: Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards
True. I installed Ubuntu fine with my 6800, just no accelleration. I really didn't notice the lack of accelleration until I tried some OpenGL screensavers. I agree there should be some kind of note, but other than that, politics wins this one... We can always provide the nvidia driver in the repositories, but shipping with the CDs would violate stuff. -- Driver Bug for nVidia 6800 series Cards https://launchpad.net/bugs/43252 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Perhaps if we added a "how to" to that Ubuntu How-To site, wherever it is. I dont' think it's a Canonical site, but it's very useful.
