Public bug reported:
I have Quantal with latest updates (proposed is on) on my laptop (Sony
VAIO F13Z1R with NVIDIA Geforce GT 425M).
When I try to install Nvidia drivers (nvidia-current package) I expect that
after reboot I will get nvidia driver, but I get nouveau.
The first thing I checked was presence of blacklist files in /etc/modprobe.d/
which prevent nouveau to load. But they are absent.
During installation process there is a file /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-
current_hybrid.conf.dpkg-new, but then it dissapears.
What is interesting synaptic reports /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-current_hybrid.conf
file on 'Installed Files'. But really it was not installed:
ls /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-current_hybrid.conf
ls: cannot access /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-current_hybrid.conf: No such file or
directory
Any ideas?
