The log file states that you still have the xserver running. I'm assuming it's from a previous try. If it's not, make sure you stopped the /etc/init.d/gdm .
As for not able to compile the kernel modules: - double check that you've installed build-essential. - make sure you've installed your linux-header package variant. - make sure you haven't installed the nvidia-kernel-common package or any variant of the nvidia-glx package. It _should_ work after that. If it doesn't we'll really need the output of the installer. You can run "sudo sh NVIDIA- Linux-x86_64-173.14.05-pkg2.run --ui=none > debug" to write the terminal output to a file called "debug". -- nvidia-glx-new driver displays white screen of death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208718 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
