mewt: You've been conned into buying a fake! :P OK seriously, that can happen due to simple mislabeling. It could be the database of device IDs is incorrect or the card itself simply has the wrong identity set in its BIOS. I think it's the former because the binary nvidia driver seems to detect it as a 6800. It might be worth spinning that off into a separate bug report.
Looking at version mismatch problem... Hmm this is very odd. Something is loading the nvidia-glx-legacy/71xx version of the nvidia driver before the correct version can be loaded. Did you use a 3rd party tool like envy to previously install the nvidia binary drivers on edgy? It would be useful to have: /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common attached to this bug too. -- nvidia kernel module has version mismatch with nvidia xorg module https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107646 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
