If you've pulled up the Ubuntu NVIDIA package (as I believe the NVIDIA instructions tell you to) then you need to take care and use DISABLED_MODULES (or some more extreme measure) as you have found (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual for details about this and other potential issues). As you are using a manual install I will stop looking at this particular bug as I believe this changes where you can go for support. If you don't see useful follow ups here you _may_ have better luck on the NVIDIA web forums (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 ) or one of the methods described on http://www.ubuntu.com/support/communitysupport .
Using the deb and putting the .pkg over the top (rather than extracting just the bit you need) is a definite way to cause trouble though and I would recommend against doing that if possible. Go with one or the other not both at the same time because if the deb is updated you will run into issues and the .pkg will no longer know which files are supposed to be managed by it. ** Summary changed: - wrong nvidia kernel module (7185 instead of 100.11.14) loads at boot time + wrong nvidia kernel module (7185 instead of 100.11.14) loads at boot time (manual install) -- wrong nvidia kernel module (7185 instead of 100.11.14) loads at boot time (manual install) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136838 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
