man what the hell. That was from over 2 years ago, and not only did noone bother to help me out, the only correspondence I get from ANYONE about this, is that it's 'invalid'? How is it 'invalid', or is that a codeword for 'don't bother'? Yeah, and in case you're wondering, no, it NEVER got fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/265093 Title: cannot install nvidia-xconfig To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-xconfig/+bug/265093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
