Installing the 96.43.19 from maverick-proposed solved the issue on my Dell Latitude D800 oldie (GeForce4 4200 Go card).
FYI: - I had to use the text install to get the 10.10 installed on this laptop in the first place; - X worked after reboot, but the mouse cursor had a "shadow" ca. 1 cm apart from the real cursor position (with nv driver, I presume); - installation of original 10.10 nvidia drivers resulted in text-only mode for a while; and - the #137 method saved the day (thx). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/626974 Title: ABI change in xorg 1.9 breaks legacy nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
