FSHero: You don't need to use nvidia-legacy (which is the 7xxx series of drivers). Your card is compatible with nvidia-glx (which is the 96xx series of drivers). See http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/appendix-a.html . You may have been better served using restricted-manager as mentioned in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia . The resolution problem is also mentioned on that link and is mentioned in Bug #91292 (although the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is not mentioned in that bug and is a good tip).
nvidia-settings doesn't work with the nvidia-glx-legacy drivers which is why the window is empty. Can you uninstall nvidia-glx-legacy, install nvidia-glx, remove the file /lib/linux-restricted-modules/.nvidia_legacy_installed , reboot, log into X. Can you then run glxinfo and glxgears and report back the results? Can you also upload the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log produced at the end of all this? This is more of a support query than a bug report though and you may have received a faster/better response using one of the methods described on http://www.ubuntu.com/support/communitysupport rather than bugs.launchpad.net ... -- I tried to run Briquolo, but it crashed. I believe that my OpenGL installation/configuration may be flawed in some way, or my NVIDIA drivers may be badly installed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116382 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
