So ran into the problem again. Uninstalled nvidia-current and nvidia- settings. Back to the same work around as described in comment #19. And nv isn't open, its proprietary. But is stable. I am not going to try nouveau as it still doesn't support 3D fully and I am just fine with 2D, which nv provides.
Maybe this problem is because I had installed nvidia drivers manually. Maybe a fresh install of 11.04 will make the problem go away. But I don't have the motivation to do that and am happy with nv. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733374 Title: X freeze, nvidia-current, Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick GeForce 9600GT _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
