I can confirm the driver listed in #144 fixes the issue. I am running Gnome Shell in Ubuntu 11.10 32 bit on a Dell Latitude D820 with an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 120M video card.
Anyone attempting to install this driver must blacklist the nouveau module first. You can do this by adding the following lines to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0 and then run: sudo update-initramfs -u and reboot your computer. You should then be able to run the NVIDIA driver installers listed in post #144 -- 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/728745 Title: [nvidia, 7300, 7400] display freeze when using unity desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nux/+bug/728745/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
