it is about 3 months ago when i changed the vid card. i dont remember if i removed the driver, but very likely not. iirc some nvidia stuff was removed at upgrade to 9.10.
when i now look into synaptics related to nvidia i have xserver-xorg-video-nv nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-common smartdimmer as i follow a bit the development of open source vid drivers at phoronix i knew, that ati dropped the support for older cards and people should use the open source drivers instead. so i had never the need of installing closed source drivers. in the time between the vid card change and the upgrade i had several reboots, mainly because of kernel header updates iirc. -- upgrade breaks graphic drivers and x, preventing login or startx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg 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
