[Bug 626974] Re: ABI change in xorg 1.9 breaks legacy nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick

[Petr A. Sokolnikov]

Hey guys, can you help me? I don't know why packages from maverick-
proposed repository not worked in my ubuntu.

For the first i was remove dajhorn repository from my repository list by "sudo 
apt-add-repository --remove ppa:dajhorn/nvidia-96".
After: apt-get update.

Then "apt-cache policy jockey-common" told:

jockey-common:
  Установлен: 0.5.10-0ubuntu5.2
  Кандидат:   0.5.10-0ubuntu5.2
  Таблица версий:
 *** 0.5.10-0ubuntu5.2 0
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu/ maverick-proposed/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.5.10-0ubuntu5.1 0
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main i386 Packages
     0.5.10-0ubuntu5 0
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages

and "apt-cache policy nvidia-96" told:

nvidia-96:
  Установлен: (отсутствует)
  Кандидат:   96.43.19-0ubuntu1
  Таблица версий:
     96.43.19-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu/ maverick-proposed/restricted i386 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     96.43.18-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu/ maverick/restricted i386 Packages

Then tried to install nvidia-96: "sudo apt-get install nvidia-96"

Then rebooted and recieved this:

[    54.450] (II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GART.
[    54.458] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate/map the primary surface!
