Reproducing The Issue: - first of all I moved the custom xorg.conf and rebooted using the already installed 177 driver.
- Downgraded to nvidia-graphics-driver-173. The Hardware Driver Applet notifies that there is any active driver, and upon selecting the "173" relase, it asks me to reboot. Rebooting with the nvidia-graphics- driver-173 shows no issue. - Using synaptic I install the "177".Unfortunately this time it does not appear on the automatic update process and it does not crashes directly the desktop. It doesn't even warns me about rebooting the hardware. Instead of rebooting , I just log out from GNOME. Instead of starting GDM, the screen flickers and starts the screen configuration rescue utility. - Instead of following the recover process, I just reboot the computer. The nvidia driver is then started without any problem. The driver in use is 177.82 of course. -The very same problems is shown upgrading to nvidia-graphics- driver-180, and it does not even show up in the "Hardware Driver" Utility. ** Attachment added: "output of lspci -vvnn" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22539020/lspci.log -- X.org crashes while upgrading nvidia modules to 177.82 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315225 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
