Two other possibly related items... I had a lot of problems with the nvidia driver and external monitors when I first bought my macbook.
At one point, I'd installed packages from "thefirstm" PPA. I thought I'd removed all of these, but while debugging this problem I noticed that at least one package from that PPA was still installed: mbp-nvidia-bl-dkms 0.22~jaunty I purged it just before purging nvidia-glx-180, and it appears it may have been running... Note the version of nvidia-bl-dkms on my system is now 0.14. Also, while debugging this problem, and before discussing with Bryce, I did a manual update and noticed that a new version of dkms was installed. -- nvidia-glx-185 conflicts nvidia-glx-180 (<< 185.18.37) version is too high, this means that dummy package nvidia-glx-180 can't upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418681 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
