Hi and thank you very much. Your advice worked well and the Nvidia's driver now flashes its logo and the Unity-desktop performs well too. I did:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current nvidia-current-dev nvidia-settings $ sudo reboot (The nvidia-current-dev package is my own idea...it's not really needed. ok?) $ dpkg -l | egrep "headers-generic|nvidia" ii linux-headers-generic 3.5.0.17.19 amd64 Generic Linux kernel headers ii nvidia-current 304.51.really.304.43-0ubuntu1 amd64 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver, kernel module and VDPAU library ii nvidia-current-dev 304.51.really.304.43-0ubuntu1 amd64 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver development files ii nvidia-settings 304.51-0ubuntu2 amd64 Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver Installation log attached. ** Attachment added: "install-log2.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1070392/+attachment/3410664/+files/install-log2.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070392 Title: Nvidia-driver on 64bit Ubuntu 12.10 fails to show Unity-desktop.
