I was running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid on my Toshiba 2410-601 satellite which
has the nvidia geforce4 420 go 32mb card installed. Following the usual
post install fiddle to enable the restricted driver (version-96) and
then set resolution and get it to recognise the screen as a DFP and not
CRT via a custom EDID (see xorg.conf below), I had full 3D graphics
acceleration running.
However since upgrading to 10.10 Maverick the restricted driver
(Additional Drivers) is unable to locate or suggest any suitable drivers
for my system. If I manually install the version -96 driver it is not
used by the system and I'm still left with basic graphics.
Is there anything I can do or would I be better off reverting back to
lucid?
