Public bug reported:
After installing proprietary driver ['nvidia-current' / 'nvidia-current-
updates'] via 'software-properties-gtk' and rebooting, driver not detect
the videocard [NVIDIA GeForce 210]. Also I have very low resolution and
"empty" nvidia-settings.
Ubuntu 12.10 amd64
nvidia-current-updates 304.51-0ubuntu1
Solution:
1. Install 'linux-source' package;
2. Install 'linux-headers-generic' package;
3. Remove 'nvidia-current' or 'nvidia-current-updates' package;
4. Reinstall 'nvidia-current' or 'nvidia-current-updates' package;
5. Reboot.
So problem is what linux-source and linux-headers-generic not installing
by default when nvidia proprietary driver activating. So may be bug in
nvidia driver packages or software-properties-gtk?
