I just did an new install of Ubuntu 13.04 this evening using the 13.04 Beta 2 DVD. The computer has nvidia video. Everything worked fine. Then I did the updates as I always do after a new install. I rebooted, and no video. This system has only Ubuntu on, so I don't get any options to select from wh

Matt, I upgraded 4 computers using the drivers from swat 4 to 6 weeks ago. Three have 295.49, and one has 295.53. The 295.40 driver was nvidia- current. The swat drivers replace the driver in nvidia-current, which was 295.40 originally. I locked the nvidia-current from swat using synaptic and no u

Sorry!! Attached are the screen shots for 214. You are correct in your assumption about following the nvidia-current package. Should the updates have automatically switched from nvidia-current to nvidia- current-updates? It looks like I can only do one attachemtn, but I tried to do both. The fi

Hi, Attached are two screen shots from Synaptic. I'll insert them here also, but I'm not sure they will display in the body of the response on the board. Nvidia 1 I locked the 295.53 driver once it was installed. Before I installed that driver, nvidia-current was 295.40 and it showed as the ins

I have a secondary computer at the office which is not used frequently. I was using it the last few days last week. It had a clean, updated install of 12.04 64 bit. The video performancwe was very laggy. So I took a look at what it had for video. It was nvidia, and thew 295-40 driver was installed.

I've upgraded two computers to 295.49, and one to 295.53 and have tested them for about a week. There have not been any issues with any of them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98248

Wrobeiro, Please read post #78 above. Also, not all NVidia systems were affected. I had one which is working fine with 295-40. But three did not. I do understand your frustration, If you read my other posts, I spent a good deal of time dealing with three other machines which did not work. Successf

Amir, I've had 4 machines with NVidia drivers. One is fine with the 295.40 driver. One is fine with the nouveau driver, including 3D. On the other two machines the nouveau driver will only work in 2G. The nouveau driver seems to have different capabilities with different versions of NVidia. On

Wal, Thank you so much for your post #76. That did work perfectly. I had tried the driver from x-swat earlier today, but ended up with 298-40 since I didn't realize that a full description of the driver was needed. I just had nvidia-current with nothing else in the apt-get install line Bruce, Th
