Really? All those source files and the only thing they do is remove 2 lines? I tried using nano to remove the 2 lines you note and recompiled the drivers. Now when x windows starts it crashes my whole ubuntu. I logged into terminal to try and delete the bad drivers but when I use cd /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers it says that directory doesn't exist. ls shows the whole /usr/lib/ directory is different than the last time I looked at it. Where did all my files go? >> 2) His statement that "QXL Driver is included in debian unstable, you >> may build it for you ubuntu." >> >> Does he mean these drivers are unstable? >> http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/driver/xf86-video- > qxl-0.0.12.tar.gz >> Because those are the ones I currently have installed. >> I tried using the ones he linked to here: >> http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video- >> qxl/xserver-xorg-video-qxl_0.0.12-1.dsc >> But they require xserver-xorg-dev version 1.7.6.901 which I don't know >> where to get. > you have not install xserver-xorg-dev, so you may not compile the dpkg > package. if the first methord works, please forgot this one. Actually I do have xserver-xorg-dev installed just not version 1.7.6.901 which is the requirement. I have the latest version installed which is all that apt-get will give me the option to install. I have no idea where to get the version I need for the package.
