The nvidia drivers were installed via restricted drivers manager on 7.10. Seems that the situation is more alike other cases I've seen on some forums. After reinstalling the restricted modules, doing
sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-17-generic --reinstall I could load the module sudo nvidia-xconfig && sudo modprobe nvidia && sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start and X appeared. The problem, now, is that this configuration seems nonpersistent. I mean, after restarting the system, the kernel is, again, unable to load the nvidia module -- seems that it can't find some file on /lib/modules/2.6.24-17-generic/volatile -- forcing, again, the reinstallation of the restricted modules. ** Attachment added: "lspci-lrm-video.zip" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14284757/lspci-lrm-video.zip -- Unable to enable nvidia restricted drivers in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226015 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
