The NVIDIA-current direver does not work properly for the nvidia gt2x0 series, this is a bug which is known and present since the first release of this graphic card series. Its a propietary driver from nvidia and they decided not to get their job done properly. Its closed source and the guys from nvidia rehected to support this grphic card for linux ( in fact even the windows driver for this card series is buggy and was never completely stable till today). noveau is developped by reverse engineering the closed source nvidia driver code and developping a free open source graphics driver of it... but how to support a graphics card which isnt even properly supported by it own producer? There is no proper working code to reverse engineer!

Great: I bought a 2xx card because I heard that the 4xx cards were crippled on Linux. Now it turns-out that they don't work either. I appreciate that this is an NVIDIA problem and not the fault of anyone in the Linux community but that doesn't reduce my frustration any.

[Bug 763052] Re: Ubuntu 10.10 can't boot on nvidia GeForce GT240
I have experienced problems with the GT240 on both 10.10 AND 11.10 (both 64bit). On 10.10: Installed the system from cd; couldn't uninstall nouveau-firmware because it said package is not installed; removed server-xorg-video-nouveau and installed nvidia-current. Rebooted, couldn't get 3D to work until I uninstalled an re-installed the proprietary Nvidia drivers, rebooted and everything worked perfectly - UNTIL I installed Adobe Flash and tried to play a YouTube video - system completely froze. Also experienced same as above - constant reboots, not even a 'base-level' keyboard etc. To be honest im getting just a little bit fed-up with Canonical's antics of the last 2-3 years (apologies if this is an Nvidia issue and not an Ubuntu one) - this six-month release schedule seems to be a bit of an encumbrance: instead of releasing every six months something that is untested and faulty, why not wait a bit longer until more things are sorted: For example: Installed 11.10 on my computer because I bought a new SSD - Previously working ATI graphics wouldn’t work and my previously working network card wouldn't work!!! Thought that Nvidia would be a safer bet, installed a GT240 - ridiculous issues with the system rebooting constantly. I LOVE Linux, but the driver issues of recent years on Ubuntu are making me really despair - instead of being 100% confident on an install (like in the days of 9.04 for example) I am now almost totally reluctant to want to change a system once it is working. What is wrong!? Are there fewer devs willing to do the tedious task of driver-coding? Or are Canonical just not bothered about checking things like compatibility of VERY POPULAR RUN-OF-THE-MILL video cards, network cards etc. before releasing. This is basic stuff!! There is nothing rare or uncommon about a GT240! What kind of systems do they test Ubuntu on for pity's sake? ** Also affects: nvidia-common Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763052 Title: Ubuntu 10.10 can't boot on nvidia GeForce GT240 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-common/+bug/763052/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

NVIDIA GT240 has speacial thermal settings whih really differ from other cards. On Windows this card ist running on 100°C at normal usage and up to 130°C while benchmarking. This is no problem, the windows driver has a much higher setting for overheating.

[Bug 763052] Re: Ubuntu 10.10 can't boot on nvidia GeForce GT240
Thanks, tuxmartin! I was able to install Ubuntu 11.04 with a Live USB in
my desktop with a GeForce GT240. First, I created an USB boot drive with
a 512Mb persistant file to install nvidia-current pack (actually, I
think 256Mb would be enough). Then I booted Ubuntu in my laptop (which
doesn't have a GeForce GT240), removed 'xserver-xorg-video-nouveau' pack
and installed 'nvidia-current' pack using synaptic. So I booted the USB
drive (with 'nvidia-current pack' installed) in my desktop with a
GeForce GT240, and Ubuntu started with the Unity interface. So I
proceeded to install Ubuntu in my harddrive. When the system finished
the installation and asked me to reboot, I choosed to run the
recuperation mode in Grub menu. Then I choosed the option to run the
terminal in root mode with network interface, and, finaly, I installed
the 'nvidia-current' pack ('apt-get install nvidia-current'). I rebooted
the system and Ubuntu 11.04 runs fine now with my nvidia GT240!
