Sorry, you're right. It uses still the nouveau driver, the nvidia gets not loaded. when I insert the nvidia-current module via modprobe, it gets loaded by the kernel (see "uname -a" output) without problems.
Linux aragorn 2.6.35-22-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Sun Oct 10 09:26:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux I deinstalled xserver-xorg-video-nouveau, but X refuses tu use the nvidia driver. BUT: I uninstalled nvidia-current, reinstalled xserver-xorg-video-nouveau, and now at least X recognizes my correct resolution again: 1680x1050. But no desktop effects, (cannot be activated, check your config...") despite I see them working until I click ok. - then they get deactivated again - no chance to activate them persistently. -- Kubuntu 10.10 nVidia, cannot start xorg https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658258 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
