Users of ATI video card has the same problem - installing ATI xorg- driver-fglrx drivers package requires manual configuration too :( xorg- driver-fglrx package contains fireglcontrolpanel configuration utility, but there are no menu launcher for this :(
I think same activation method - a debconf key, which ask the user if he want to "activate" to driver, should be used for xorg-driver-fglrx package too. Only command will be different: aticonfig --initial Should I report separate bug against xorg-driver-fglrx package ? Btw, some time ago I've made initial script for automatic installation of video-drivers (currently supports new NVIDIA and ATI Radeon drivers), look at http://ftp.akl.lt/Linux/Baltix/install-video-drivers I think this script could be extended to work with nvidia-legacy and other video drivers, which requires manual installing of driver packages and manual configuration. -- installing NVIDIA non-free binary package requires manual configuration https://launchpad.net/bugs/32853 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
