Thanks for writing. I took a chance and installed Intrepid and was finally able to install the drivers. In fact, any of the available NVIDIA drivers I wanted to install.
On the HH version of Ubuntu, I probably installed the drivers 15 times unsuccessfully. It was very frustrating. --Jack ________________________________ From: Bryce Harrington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 24, 2008 12:40:23 AM Subject: [Bug 276139] Re: blank display when trying to load drivers for 8400 Hi consultmba, Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue.
