Hi again EzNet! Happy to see it works!
About the Nvidia drivers names. There are two (proprietary) Nvidia drivers, the "old" one, and the new. Because Ubuntu ships both drivers, usually the old one is referred simply as nvidia, and the newer as nvidia-new when talking about them. Both drivers are exposed to the X Window System as "nvidia", but the module loader must differentiate them because every driver supports different options when loaded by the kernel. This is the reason because you must use "nvidia" in X, but "nvidia_new" for modprobe to handle it correctly. Eventually, when the old driver is not shipped we will switch to "nvidia" also in the modprobe config. I hope the confusion about the nvidia driver names are now gone. If you still have some questions, I'll be there to answer whenever I can. -- Occasional screen-wide "blink" when using opengl apps (compiz also) and Nvidia cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164589 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
