Not bad but I have some more suggestions...
Your card is a geforce 2mx and is best off using the nvidia-glx driver
(it has various bug fixes and you won't even have to use Xgl to get
those 3D effects - what a deal!). If you have been following the edgy
betas for more than two weeks

Good grief - that's a disaster waiting to happen! Please can you file a new bug
report on that issue against restricted-manager? These 3rd party tools have the
power to make life extremely difficult on upgrades...

searayman:
The metacity issue is probably a different problem again. If you want to
investigate that I would recommend spinning off another bug.
As it happens the best driver for your card is not the legacy driver but rather
nvidia-glx . This driver represents the 96xx series. I would be

OK, for me this fix worked:
You need to check the file /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
(with the text editor of your choice, opened with a sudo -- sudo gedit
/etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common) and make sure the line
DISABLED_MODULES=nv is NOT there.
If it is. you need

ok so i tried the above, and well i am still here so thats a good thing.

I am having the same problem, and may be able to add some more info. I
have the same card as searayman has and need to use the 96xx NVIDIA
driver. The xserver crash message that appears on-screen after a boot
says that is cannot find the driver in the
/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/volatile
i can confirm the volitale error too i also receive that.

Hmm another -386 kernel. This is starting to sound suspiciously similar
to Bug #107084 .
searayman:
Are you really running on hardware older than a pentium 3? If not you may want
to try switching over to the -generic kernels (and
linux-restricted-modules-generic )...

Good question. I MAKE NO GUARANTEES THAT THE FOLLOWING WORKS. IF YOU FOLLOW
THESE STEPS AND YOUR SYSTEM BREAKS OR YOU LOSE ANY DATA I ABSOLVE MYSELF OF

You can try the following:
sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic
should pull in the latest generic kernel.

can anyone confirm or give me a little assurance of the above
commands?

The dmesg and dpkg don't require to you be using the nvidia binary. To
be useful /var/log/Xorg.0.log needs to be from one of the failing run
using nvidia.
