OMG, JTP!
Have you got any idea how many hours I spent with this issue?!
I found so many posts with the same, there must be hundreds of cursing
people out there racking their brains.
You could make some people happy... - in fact, you did!
With your help, I just made an important step towards
Thanks for the update flabdablet... until I read your comment, it didn't
occur to me that my post wasn't really that informative.. I guess I was
just focusing on getting people back up and running.
First of all, as far as I know, there is absolutely no reason to run the
legacy drivers, so please d
The attached xorg.conf fixed this issue on my Dell Inspiron 8200 (used
with nvidia-glx, not nvidia-glx-legacy).
Once you have basic nvidia functionality again, have a play with the
nvidia-settings tool; all sorts of nice things can be done.

I also have a Latitude C840 with the Geforce4 400 Go. I was able to make

This morning I had an update for both gdm and nvidia, so I thought I
would try it all again. So, I did sudo nvidia-xconfig, but no success. I
decided to reinstall nvidia-glx package again, but it still didn't work

I did the reconfigure and then the nvidia config as you suggested. When
I restarted X it seemed liked X didn't want to come up right. I couldn't

I advise you to get a fresh xorg.conf
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
And then prepare it for nvidia:
sudo nvidia-xconfig
Then restart your X server and all "should" be good.

Ok I'm going to move this to the restricted modules package for Feisty
as the nvidia proprietary drivers are located there. If your xorg.conf
says "nv" then what you're looking at in synaptic is most likely the
feisty version of the open source drivers. I can't really tell you more,

update-manager Just had a load of updates, but no nvidia ones. I checked with
synaptic and I have the following nvidia installed:
1.0.9631+2.6.20.1-6 (feisty)
So, it looks like the nvidia-driver was updated to one for feisty.

actually when I first read the xorg.conf I thought it was after, if it's
before and the "nvidia" drivers are coming up as a blank screen then
changing it back will just meet with the same results.
The update-manager might have handled the problem on it's own (not
sure). Let me know how it goes.
-
The "Nv" drivers are the open source nvidia drivers, you could try
setting that to "nvidia" but I doubt that will fix it. Like I said, I'm
pretty sure you need to reinstall the nvidia proprietary drivers.

Chris, sorry I didn't see your reply...
Thanks for your reply, it kinda backs up my theory as well. I will look
into the link you sent me and will report back if I have any successes
or not.

Umm, sorry, the description of the attached file is incorrect. It is the

I saw the comments in the xorg.conf file and noticed the command to
automatically reconfigure X, so I ran it:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
Then restarted X, and now it is working OK.
I did not see the nVidia logo, so I checked the xorg.conf file again. I
saw that in the Device sectio
Oh, and I forgot to point out that I did not make any change to the
xorg.conf file after the upgrade, so the upgrade did not correctly
reconfigure the xorg.conf file when the upgrade was made, only when I
did it manually.

I believe that whenever you upgrade the kernel you need to reinstall the
proprietary drivers. Can you include your xorg.conf or just see if it
modified what drivers it's using?
Try referring to http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy
