Public bug reported:
Kubuntu hardy a3 64bit when restricted drivers are enabled it insists
on using nvidia-glx when my nvidia 7600gs requires nvidia-glx-new . if I
uninstall nvidia-glx using adept or synaptic or from terminal and
install nvidia-glx-new enabling restricted drivers UNINSTALLS nvidia-
glx-new and installs nvidia-glx again. this can be overriden by after
enabling restricted drivers but before reboot uninstalling nvidia-glx
and installing nvidia-glx-new . possible additional info or possible
different bug , if all things having to do with restricted drivers are
purged the Nvidia propriatary driver module refuses to load , it
compiles properly and the module is installed but will not load at boot
. this does not happen with hardy -gnome a3 64 bit on the same box ( I
have both installed on seperate drives)
