I updated to Maverick yesterday. After that, Ubuntu wouldn't initialize X because of this error. I could fix it doing this:
1) FailsafeX in the newest kernel: restore Xorg.conf from scratch, then restart X. With this, I was able to start Ubuntu normally, but the 3d effects were disabled because Ubuntu wasn't able to load the "nvidia" module. No hardware acceleration, and the screen wasn't detected either. 2) Added a repository with latest nvidia-current firmware. Then updated and upgraded. This repository is: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu maverick main 3) Made "sudo nvidia-xconfig". That filled the xorg.conf from the blank file I had before 4) Added the ignoreABI thing to the xorg.conf file. With this, now I'm using Ubuntu as usual, with hardware acceleration, screen detected, etc... -- nVidia card : X won't start since 1.9 update, no screens found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/616023 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
