After running "jockey-gtk -e", jockey downloads the correct package and installs it. That process is very visible in the GUI.
So "dpkg -l" shows nvidia-glx-96 as being installed. If I enable the 71 driver, then it would remove 96 and install 71. Since I did not enable the nvidia driver, I deleted my xorg.conf to launch X in the fail-safe mode. "jockey-gtk -e" creates this xorg.conf file: Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" DefaultDepth 24 Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" EndSection Section "Module" Load "glx" Disable "dri2" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Default Device" Driver "nvidia" Option "NoLogo" "True" EndSection -- jockey silently fails to enable nvidia driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272474 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
