Well it gets more confusing! Both logs show the device nodes created. Are you *sure* the failed_log isn't accidentally a successful run?
After sed-ing out the differences in dates and times a diff doesn't show much difference aside from echoing of the commands in the successful_log. sed -i -e 's/..:..:../ : : /g' -e 's/..:../ : /g' -e 's/2010-04-24/ - - /g' succeeded_log sed -i -e 's/..:..:../ : : /g' -e 's/..:../ : /g' -e 's/2010-04-24/ - - /g' failed_log diff -Nu succeeded_log failed_log --- succeeded_log 2010-04-24 20:12:38.000000000 +0100 +++ failed_log 2010-04-24 20:12:43.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,14 +1,8 @@ -lsmod | grep nvidia nvidia 10799466 0 -ls -l /dev/nvidia* : annot access /dev/nvidi : o such file or directory -modprobe -vr --first-time -o nvidia nvidia-current rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.32-19-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko -modprobe -v --first-time -o nvidia nvidia-current WARNI : ould not find old name in /lib/modules/2.6.32-19-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko to replace! insmod /lib/modules/2.6.32-19-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko -startx -- -verbose 5 -logverbose 5 -echo "forked, x started" forked, x started @@ -497,7 +491,6 @@ (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboa : pplying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboa : lways reports core events (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboa : evi : /dev/input/event3" -sleep 35 (II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboa : ound keys (II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboa : onfiguring as keyboard (II) XINP : dding extended input device "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" (ty : EYBOARD) @@ -535,10 +528,8 @@ (II) config/ud : dding input device Macintosh mouse button emulation (/dev/input/mouse0) (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring) (II) X : euse xkmfile /var/lib/xkb/server-F8D9B4EE1D9075AF4B1C23C75362EE93E14954A0.xkm -ls -l /dev/nvidia* crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 195, 0 - - : /dev/nvidia0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 195, 255 - - : /dev/nvidiactl -shutdown -r now waiting for X server to shut down (II) Power Butt : lose (II) UnloadModu : evdev" -------- On a related note there's confirmation that nvidia_drv.so creates the nodes: strings /usr/lib/nvidia-current/xorg/nvidia_drv.so | grep dev/nvidia /dev/nvidiactl /dev/nvidia%d -- after upgrade to lucid, xorg frequently fails to start properly using nvidia-current https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561049 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
