I am unable to install the nVidia 180.44 driver. There is no package in the 64bit repository for Intrepid Ibex, and the download page you linked to only contains a .run for x86 32bit systems. If you can point me to a 64 bit version of the driver, I'll be happy to test it for you.
Output of *uname -a * *Linux anubis 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:28:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux* Also, I'm not entirely convinced that this is a bug with the nvidia driver. I believe it is simply something with the window manager. - Drew Chapin On Thu, Apr 2, 2009 at 15:53, Bryce Harrington <[email protected]>wrote: > > [This is an automated message] > > In Jaunty (9.04), we have just updated to the latest > nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 package from nVidia, version 180.44. > > This package provides fixes for a large number of bugs, and we need your > assistance in testing if it fixes the issue you reported. > > To do this, please do the following: > > a.
