Sudo modprobe nvidia returns the following error message: FATAL: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-13-generic/volatile/nvidia.ko': No such file or directory
I did discover that the instructions given in Synaptic package manager are out of date. If you search for the nvidia-glx package and select it for installation, the instruction given on the last line of of the information screen says: "To enable the driver, run sudo nvidia-glx-config enable". This is wrong. the correct command is "sudo nvidia-xconfig" Running this command, properly backs up xorg.conf and enters the nvidia driver. However, x still fails to load with the nvidia driver enabled. The hardware detection failure of this video card is present in Edgy final and Feisty beta and I will enter that as a seperate bug. -- Cannot enable nvidia driver in Feisty beta https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
