The package I installed was: nvidia-glx-new_169.12+2.6.24.12-16.34_amd64.deb
here is the output of dpkg -l "linux*2.6.24*" | grep ^ii ii linux-headers-2.6.24-16 2.6.24-16.30 Header files related to Linux kernel version ii linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic 2.6.24-16.30 Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.24 on x ii linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic 2.6.24-16.30 Linux kernel image for version 2.6.24 on x86 ii linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic 2.6.24-16.23 Ubuntu supplied Linux modules for version 2. I want to point out that when I remove the nvidia-glx-new package and run nvidia's proprietary installation it works with that xorg.conf file. I know it goes through a step where it builds the kernel module. If you want me to upload the kernel modules it built to check them out against the ones in the package I can. -- nvidia packages contain kernel modules compiled using older gcc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226983 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
