@Eduard It looks like something that you installed (e.g. a more recent version of nvidia-settings and or of the nvidia driver) left /usr/share/man/man1/nvidia-smi.1.gz and /usr/bin/nvidia-smi, which the nvidia packages cannot overwrite. @Doug Fixed, thanks. -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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

@Eduard Two things are not correct: 1) you should remove this file: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local.conf This is what prevents you from using the driver, as it blacklists the module that you need to use. After removing the file and rebooting your system, the driver should work. 2) This is not related to the problem that you mentioned but the error with nvidia-common should be fixed by an upgrade to version 0.2.17 of nvidia-common -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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

Re: [Bug 494166] Re: [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5
It looks like the driver binaries in the Lucid archive were copied over from the Karmic archive, where they were built against Karmic's xserver packages, and they have not been rebuilt against Lucid's xserver packages. So that's why the nvidia blob is providing the older xserver-xorg-video virtual package. On Wed, Dec 30, 2009 at 10:04 AM, Curtis Lee Bolin curtlee2...@gmail.comwrote: yes, you are correct.

Harry, thanks for the info on the problem with the Nvidia Vdpau PPA. The problem with the xserver-xorg-video-5 instead of 6 was due to my initial laziness in just copying the binaries from Karmic over the Lucid. I have corrected it by building the drivers against Lucid. The new 190/195 driver in the PPA should support Lucid, and do provide xserver-xorg- video-6. Also, I have packaged them to use the external libvdpau, which is close to how the blob will be packaged in Lucid and beyond. I updated nvidia- common to use the 190/195 modaliases packages so jockey can be used to install the drivers -- no need to mess with nvidia-xconfig or directly edit xorg.conf. I also packaged vdpauinfo which can be installed as an informational tool. Harry wrote I wonder what is there that takes so long to get the latest stable drivers into Ubuntu main repos. There are a great number of scripts which must be painstakingly changed each time a new blob is released.

Same issue here on my Sony Vaio with a GeForce Go 6200/6400. Harry's workaround solves the problem temporarily. A small downside is that you have to repeat his installation procedure every time a new kernel is installed. On the other hand, the new nvidia beta driver 195 is way better than the older one.

[Bug 494166] Re: [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5
Nate Wiebe, the conflict is caused by the virtual package xserver-xorg-video-5. Xserver-xorg-core 1.7 conflicts with that one. Now the nvidia driver 190.42 from NVidia PPA (but not from the Nvidia Vdpau Team PPA) provides xserver-xorg-video-6 which is not in conflict with xorg. Please test the following way: - remove nvidia-glx and all other related nvidia-packages (185, 190, 195) - empty the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf - install xorg packages 7.5 / 1.7 to fully update them - check that you have xserver-xorg-video-nv and -vesa installed - reboot (you may now experience low graphics mode, because nv does not work well either with new xorg) - install now nvidia graphics drivers 190 or 195 from NVidia PPA (not from NVidia Vdpau Team PPA) - run in terminal: sudo nvidia-xconfig - reboot Reboot or startup may run into black screen or low graphics mode from time to time these days because of bugs in new xorg. Particularly after some updates this is likely to happen. Then, run in terminal: sudo nvidia-xconfig and reboot. This will help.

Nate Wiebe, Like I wrote the Nvidia PPA contains stable 190.42 drivers, that do work. But since lucid is at a development stage, the beta drivers (195.22) would be a better solution. The nvidia-vdpau PPA is a bit complicated now, since the 190 driver has been re-packaged using source for current nvidia-185 package as a base. Installing 190 driver from there will also install some 185 packages as well. -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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

Latest stable driver is: Version: 190.42 Certified Release Date: 2009.10.27 Operating System: Linux Language: English (UK) File Size: 22.8 MB However, I don't see reason for adding 190 drivers into lucid. If developers will upload beta 195.22, Ubuntu will prepared for stable 195.xx series. I hope that 195 stable driver will release until lucid's final. -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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
[Bug 494166] Re: [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5
I do agree with going with the 195 drivers for lucid. Harry, just wondering how you got the 190 drivers from the nvidia ppa to work. For me, they are still conflicting with xorg and ubuntu-desktop. -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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

[Bug 494166] Re: [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5
To sum up once more, please note that the problem is the virtual package xserver-xorg-video-5. Nvidia-glx 185 (in lucid repos) does provide xserver-xorg-video-5; Xserver-xorg-core 1.7 (in lucid repos) is in conflict with the very same xserver-xorg-video-5. The Nvidia Graphics Drivers from www.nvidia.com does not provide such a package and is not in conflict with the new xorg 1.7. Also one can use the great PPA of sevenmachines (Nvidia PPA) and use either stable 190 or beta 195 driver. -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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

This is good reason for upgrade to nvidia 190.42 or 195.x +1 -- [lucid] nvidia-glx can't work with new xorg 7.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494166 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
