eteq: Yes, I was trying to find a way to update my graphics driver to the newest version, and I was told over IRC that I should use EnvyNG. That was with the 'old' (2.6.27-1) kernel. Maybe that's where the problem was.
However, I have since uninstalled EnvyNG, but the problem persists: a task called "nvidia (xxx.xx)" fails at boot. Actually, it has worsened because now the nvidia-task even fails on 2.6.27-1 - meaning that now I cannot get a proper resolution with ANY kernel! I tried reinstalling EnvyNG, but now I cannot start it anymore - it crashes on startup! -- Kernel upgrade to 2.6.27-2 breaks nVidia graphics card detection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263974 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
