@disappearedng Dear disappearedng,
Downloading and installing NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-256.53.run didn't work, too. So, I used Michael E. Adams' instructions (#58) and used pal_'s link (#56, but I searched for the 64bit-packages): 1. I removed all nvidia packages with synaptic. 2. I downloaded the files as described in #58 using the following link: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/256.53-0ubuntu3/+build/1973339. 3. I also had to download the package nvidia-settings_256.53-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb (I don't know anymore where I found it, but there's now a link: #66 4. I installed the packages using Ubuntu Software Center, first I installed 'nvidia-current_256.53-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb 5. I did (as described by #58): sudo update-alternatives --config gl_conf sudo ldconfig sudo nvidia-xconfig sudo reboot 6. So, then only the external monitor worked, so I still have to use the CustomEDID-option, so I copied xorg.conf.backup to xorg.conf (in /etc/X11) and reboted. 7. I made the necessary settings with the NVIDIA-GUI and then it worked fine. I'll hope this will help you Bernhard -- Beta 10.10 Nvidia update broke Sony Vaio VPCF136FM installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655078 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
