[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1262752] [NEW] nvidia_304 not blacklisted or removed when nvidia_304_updates is installed.
Public bug reported: Dell Latitude E6520 Laptop System had a working nvidia-304 driver package installed (304.88-0ubuntu0.0.3) A regular system update installed, build and activated nvidia-304-updates (304.108-0ubuntu0.0.1) The new driver does not blacklist nvidia-304 which is still available at /lib/modules/3.2.0-57-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia_304.ko Depending on which driver is found first on the filesystem, it is possible that udev loads the wrong driver at system boot.

Hi Flames_in_Paradise, I'll check the dkms status tomorrow, as the affected laptops (& desktops) are at work. For myself I was already able to fix the issue by blacklisting nvidia_304 in the apropriate modprobe.conf file, shipped with nvidia-304-updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-304-updates in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262752 Title: nvidia_304 not blacklisted or removed when nvidia_304_updates is installed.

Confirmed as well. > dkms status Gives both drivers as "installed" for kernel 3.2.0-57-generic > dkms remove nvidia-304/304.88 -k 3.2.0-57-generic Also fixes the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-304-updates in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262752 Title: nvidia_304 not blacklisted or removed when nvidia_304_updates is installed.
