Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release?

That's correct: 6.0.6.1. I'm unwilling to move to edgy because when I tried it on my laptop it screwed up my working wireless connection [#69059].

[Bug 70235] Re: 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails
This sounds more like a problem with users not having proper meta packages installed, so getting version skew. sudo apt-get install linux-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic That should pull in everything required, please test and make sure. If you had the proper metapackages before (linux-386 or linux-686 for example) and this did not pull in the proper updated metapackages, it's something we need to fix in linux-meta, not in update-manager. -- 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/70235 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 70235] Re: 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails
I had this problem when I upgraded nvidia-glx and linux-restricted- modules a few days ago. The contents of /var/log/gdm/:0.log are in the file attached. The error reported is that there is a version mismatch between the kernel module (8762) and the X module (8776) This happens with kernel 2.6.15-26-amd64-k8. If I use kernel 2.6.15-27-amd64-k8, with the up-to-date restricted modules, the NVIDIA driver works fine (version 8776). So, my problem seems to be specific to the restricted modules package for 2.6.15-26-amd64-k8. ** Attachment added: "/var/log/gdm/:0.log" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5005382/%3A0.log -- 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/70235 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I had the same problem after updating my system on Nov 5.

[Bug 70235] Re: 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails
I had the same problem. After a complete re-install I installed the nvidia binary driver and a new kernel (2.6.15-27-686 with SMP enabled). I changed the driver from nv to nvidia but then xorg gave me the api error.

[Bug 70235] Re: 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails
I'd like to convert this into a bug about the update-manager but don't know how to do this. Clearly, the solution was to reboot, but the update-manager normally prompts the user when a reboot is necessary. It didn't do so on this occasion. I clearly should. It doesn't make sense to have it advise a reboot on only some of the occasions that a reboot is necessary - that's confusing for the user. -- 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/70235 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
