Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic
It's a Dell Inspiron 1520, NVIDIA geforce 8400M GS.
After installation of that package and manually changing "nv" to
"nvidia" in xorg.conf X won't start. At first it appeared like an
upsplash bug, but editing it out from menu.lst seems to suggest a
problem:
...
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device PCI:1:0:0.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Please see the COMMON PROBLEMS section in the README for
(EE) NVIDIA(0): additional information.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(II) UnloadModule: "fb"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
.
I am using (k)Ubuntu Gutsy (linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22.4-14.10)
