I have an nvidia GeForce 8800GTS.
Following a complete reinstall from scratch, a full dist-upgrade to the
latest kernel and reinstall of the nvidia-glx package through the
restricted drivers manager I now have a different symptom in that X now
dies reporting that it can't access /dev/nvidia0 due to an input/output
error. I have attached the full Xorg.0.log for this failed start. The
permissions on /dev/nvidia* are:
$ ls -l /dev/nvidia*
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 195, 0 2007-04-15 17:24 /dev/nvidia0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 195, 255 2007-04-15 17:24 /dev/nvidiactl
As requested:
$ dpkg -l nvidia-* | grep ii
ii nvidia-glx 1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-15.20 NVIDIA binary XFree86
4.x/X.Org driver
ii nvidia-kernel-common 20051028+1ubuntu7 NVIDIA binary kernel module
common files
Also may be of interest is the `lspci -vv` output for the device?
