Comment 14 works with Nvidia when using the nouveau driver, but not the Nvidia driver 367.57 (black screen). Starting an xterm allows you to run other things, even unity. Using the nouveau driver, login to vt2 and run: xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1 vt2 Result is a white background xterm, fully

The Nvidia driver 375.66 fixed the window artifact problems, so use that version to avoid the missing link problem. You can use apt-file search libcuda.so.1 to find which nvidia driver packages contain the file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which

Sometimes after the screensaver, the mouse pointer becomes invisible on a current to 11/6 Maverick 10.10 system. I am running the Nvidia graphics 6150, without the proprietary drivers. I don't recall seeing this problem in any earlier release. The hardware did not have problems with the 10.04 bl

Problem solved by using the Nvidia drivers. I would prefer to use the open drivers however, since I boot off a USB thumbdrive, and now I cannot successfully boot on a machine without Nvidia chips. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to

Upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04, and had the screensaver crash when using GL screensavers. A quick click before the preview screensaver runs to select a non GL screensaver stopped the crashes. The crash may be related to the bonobo-activation server crash because of a missing bonono socket in /tmp, a

Burned a live Lucid CD and booted up the HP Pavilion a210n. It experienced the GL crash/hang too with the antSpotlight, so I guess the upgrade was not an issue. I did find a warning at the top of one text screen which might be of interest: (Process:256): GLibWARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed d
