I've pulled the xserver-xorg packages from Lucid, and used the Maverick nvidia-96 package. Pinned xorg, xserver-xorg on the Lucid release using "aptitude hold xserver-xorg". Working nvidia drivers again for the old system.
I'm not on that machine at present, sorry to not post specific versions. Can someone at least post a nvidia-96 and perhaps nvidia-glx-96 update that require the old xserver-xorg? This should stop people from installing the new xorg and breaking things again. Current Requires lists: x11-common (>= 1:7.0.0) which perhaps should also state < 1:9.0.0 ? -- ABI change in xorg 1.9 breaks legacy nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/626974 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
