Further info (=problem with uninstalling restricted drivers) 29-07-08 - software updates installed, mostly firefox related; restarted X; no change
Used 'hardware drivers' to disable nvidia driver. Received error message: 'E: nvidia-glx-new: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2' Details from synaptic GUI 'details' section: dpkg-divert: error checking '/usr/lib32/libGL.so.1': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing nvidia-glx-new (--remove): subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: nvidia-glx-new E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install. Trying to recover: After reboot I'm back to situation on fresh installation, i.e. resolution 1280*768; but no higher options and the screen doesn't quite 'fit', some of lower panel missing to bottom and left of monitor. Hardware drivers GUI says nvidia driver disabled and not in use. xorg.conf is now identical to the absolutely minimal one created on installation of ubuntu. -- Hardware Drivers error for nvidia in hardy (2.6.24.19) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251832 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
