*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 76294 *** Same thing happens to me basically every time I update the restricted modules. I assume the problem is that I use nVidia's proprietary drivers, and the restricted modules seem to always overwrite them or disable them. Thus, when I update the restricted modules, KDE doesn't start I'm stuck ata command prompt.
To solve the problem I simply run "sudo envy" from the command line (Alberto Milone's very convenient script, at http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html) which automatically re- connects to nVidia's server and gets the drivers again, if needed. If I already have the most up-to-date drivers it just sets them up again. Annoying, but not I'm a little wary of getting rid of the restricted modules because of the dependencies. -- restricted modules for 2.6.20-4 causes boot to hang https://launchpad.net/bugs/78148 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
