You have been subscribed to a public bug: Although nvidia-glx-96 is recommended, I naively thought a higher number would allow my card (NV11DDR [GeForce2 MX200]) to use affects (Compiz) w/o lagging. I installed nvidia-glx173, and on restart the PC started in low-graphics mode (choices being to configure, etc). I didn't know how to configure, so after blindly trying the other options ran in Ubuntu and started this <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1369217">thread<a>.
*xorg.conf &/var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't appear to change compared to starting in low-graphics mode or at log in restarting gdm (ctrl+alt+f1, login, sudo service gdm restart). Ubuntu 9.10 $ apt-cache policy usplash usplash: Installed: 0.5.49 Candidate: 0.5.49 Version table: *** 0.5.49 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I expected my computer to start in normal graphics mode after doing the steps to change the driver back, restarting x, and restarting gdm. Unfortunately, every time we restart the computer (hard restart, through panel, etc.) the computer starts in low-graphics mode. To get normal graphics, I have to restart gdm. ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-series-unknown -- NV11DDR [GeForce2 MX200] starts in low-graphic mode, service gdm restart fixes temporarily. https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/502669 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 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
