Bug#830721: Failed to load module "nv" (module does not exist, 0)

2016-07-10 Thread Andreas Beckmann 
Hi Karsten,

You are missing a xorg.conf - see README.Debian
(or use the driver packages from jessie-backports, these automatically
configure Xorg)

How did you install the drivers? Make sure you reboot afterwards to
unload and blacklist nouveau!

Logs show that:

1) You have a very old 304.125 module loaded. Remove any *legacy-304xx
packages, and make sure the kernel modules from dkms are gone too
2) Xorg is still loading nouveau, so make sure update-alt is correct:

- "sudo update-alternatives --config glx" should have /usr/lib/nvidia
- "sudo update-alternatives --config nvidia" should
have /usr/lib/nvidia/current

Kind regards,

Hello,

i changed the card from ATI to NVIDIA after the ATI card died.
After that i uninstalled all ATI stuff.
Then i reinstalled the xserver and the nvidia-driver.
It says it was compiling the nvidia driver and did report no error.

But it is not working - there is no driver!

Why graphics is such a pain in original Debian?
When i boot Knoppix i always have a running X!

Cheers
Karsten
