here's my stuff, spelled out: Lenovo 3000 J series, AMD 64x2 running 32 bit $ lspci -nn | grep VGA 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100] [10de:0242] (rev a2) here's what i've tried so far: wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/275.21/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-275.21.run sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.38-10-generic-pae sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-275.21.run -n -s --x-prefix=/usr/lib/xorg/ --kernel-source-path=/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` thinking about going down to 10.04, wonder if that will be any different. worked ok (after some tweaking, not that i can remember what) in 8.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/747717 Title: 11.04 - opening too many windows causes new windows to render blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/747717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
