. In Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic This error is caused by nvidia driver 190.xx series
!!! HERE IS A SOLUTION !!! I have started recovery mode in GRUB and I uninstalled my nvidia drivers from command line sudo sh cudadriver_2.3_linux_32_190.18.run --uninstall Before be able to use new nvidia driver you must uninstall all previous nvidia drivers. Check in System > Administation > Hardware Drivers for nvidia drivers and remove them. shut down x server: $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop download new driver wget http://www.nvidia.com/.......last driverlinux_32_190.18.run (find last one) install new driver sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-190.42-pkg1.run restart xserver $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart For me it works. Good luck. . -- Boot starts with: "setting mode nnn x nnn failed" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67826 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
