ok i tried the following method, mentioned above: wget ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/185.18.04/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.04-pkg1.run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.04-pkg1.run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
but it didn't work. i am seeing this message in the kernel log: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 185.18.04, but NVRM: this kernel module has the version 180.51. Please NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver NVRM: components have the same version. i tried removing all nvidia drivers, modules, etc. with synaptic, but i think that was still the error. -- Nvidia does not work with Geforce 6100 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
