Public bug reported: Nvidia Restricted Drivers cause a Signal 11 Fatal Server Error when trying to start X.
Configuration and steps taken: Motherboard: Asrock 939 Dual Sata II Processor: AMD Athlon64 3200 Memory: 1Gb OCZ Fresh install of Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10. Allowed Adept to install all pending updates and then switched on the Nvidia restricted drivers from system settings. Nv driver works OK, but on restart get a blank screen when starting Xserver. The following is the final few lines of Xorg.0.log Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x6d) [0x48670d] 1: /lib/libc.so.6 [0x2aaebc32e7d0] 2: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so(_nv001174X+0x36) [0x2aaebe7e0986] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting I have tried multiple alternatives e.g. manual install of Nvidia drivers, using Envy etc. Nothing tried so far solves the problem. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Nvidia restricted drivers cause sig11 Xserver failure https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
