I don't know about now, but at the time I installed the driver, there was a nice graphical interface, accessible somewhere from the System Settings menu (back when Ubuntu had a menu), where you could choose whether to use NVidia proprietary drivers. And I chose not to. It wasn't some arcane command line that I found out by googling around, it was something that was made accessible to a "normal user". If things have changed since, you must take into account that there are machines still around that have been upgraded since those times. I can't remember exactly which Ubuntu version that was. It may have been 13.04, or 12.something -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431753 Title: Nvidia binary driver FTBS due to DKMS layer violation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1431753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
