UBUNTU VERSION: HARDY 2.6.24-17-generic (gutsy upgrade) lspci : nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]
worked eventually for me: after hardy upgrade, restricted drivers didn't work as grub boot menu wasn't updated with hardy. Added this section to the file /boot/grub/menu.lst (careful to note that the "root" line refers to the right hardrive/partition) title Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-17-generic root (hd1,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-17-generic root=UUID=79f11485-6a69-4e81-87f1-3cac737263d7 ro quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-17-generic quiet title Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-17-generic (recovery mode) root (hd1,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-17-generic root=UUID=79f11485-6a69-4e81-87f1-3cac737263d7 ro single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-17-generic -- NVidia driver and kernel module driver mismatch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187240 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
