Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
hello all, After my install of ubuntu 10.04 and gnome desktop, I install successfully ppa nvidia driver 256.35-0ubuntu2. Then I play to upgrade this installation to Ubuntu maverick (development branch) and yesterday after several upgrade (I am of the cmdl school and still prefer apt-get dist-upgrade) X server failed to restart: [snip] [ 125.178] (II) Module nvidia: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation" [ 125.178] compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0 [ 125.178] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 125.178] ================ WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING ================ [ 125.178] This server has a video driver ABI version of 8.0 that this driver does not officially support.
