Cesar: Could you paste the output of cat /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common into this bug report (no need to attach it as the output should be only 12 lines). Could you restart the system and go to recovery mode (don't run apt). Choose that you want a terminal and then run the following: ls -ra /lib/modules/2.6.24-17-generic/volatile ls-volatile.txt sudo modprobe --ignore-install nvidia_new modprobe.output 21 sudo chown $USER modprobe.output ls-volatile.txt sudo reboot And then upload modprobe.output and ls-volatile.txt to this bug report? -- Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226015 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

Turns out that /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common disabled the loading of the nvidia drivers. I wonder when did I make this modification... Thanks! And sorry for wasting your time, I should have figured out by myself. -- Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226015 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 226015] Re: Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy
The nvidia drivers were installed via restricted drivers manager on 7.10. Seems that the situation is more alike other cases I've seen on some forums. After reinstalling the restricted modules, doing sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-17-generic --reinstall I could load the module sudo nvidia-xconfig sudo modprobe nvidia sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start and X appeared. The problem, now, is that this configuration seems nonpersistent. I mean, after restarting the system, the kernel is, again, unable to load the nvidia module -- seems that it can't find some file on /lib/modules/2.6.24-17-generic/volatile -- forcing, again, the reinstallation of the restricted modules. ** Attachment added: lspci-lrm-video.zip http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14284757/lspci-lrm-video.zip -- Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226015 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

Cesar: Did you manually install the NVIDIA drivers before the upgrade (or use a 3rd party tool like automatrix or envy)? It may also be helpful to post the output of lspci -nn to this bug report along with the output of sudo sh -x /sbin/lrm-video nvidia . -- Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226015 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
