i checked out your script for dapper. i have a few questions

i notice it still unisintalls the restricted modules, i need those for madwifi, do you know if a simple way to reinstall them? or to avoid uninstalling them? i never got the modules working on gentoo, i had to use them as a command line program rather than a kernel module i think..

also what is that patch it applies? what does it do?

it looks like the main difference here is it just copies the modules/libs to a slightly different directory

ill try the patch tonight, im not on my home computer right now

thanks
EDIT: I didn't notice you were successful. I'm glad you made it.

I got it to work yesterday. Tseliot in your guide for nvidia-glx-legacy delete the part where you had "linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`-nvidia -legacy" that package doesnt exist anymore.

All i did was this to get it working:
sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-kernel-common linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy


The newest version of nvidia-glx-legacy installs nvidia-settings by itself along with linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`-386 so you dont need to. Make sure you don't have linux-restricted-modules-386 that screwed my X up.....
Which version of Ubuntu do you refer to? If you are talking about Dapper Drake then I agree with you (it's all in my guide for Dapper).

Just set up my nVidia correctly on a GeForce 6100 set using method 2. Thanks, tseliot.

However, the sound on my board, using an nForce 430 is still not working. I downloaded the drivers and successfully recompiled the kernel, but there is still no sound. This probably isn't a big problem, since I haven't the slightest clue what I'm doing. Can anyone point me to a guide for this? Thanks.
I do not own that motherboard and I wouldn't know how to help you. I'm sorry.

well last night i actually did get my original install working ONCE.. it booted up with the right drivers. everything seemed good, until i rebooted
then i kept getting some kind of version mismatch.. i was pretty annoyed and frustrated, and since i had only just recently installed it and hadnt done anything on it except for screw around with driver issues. i reformatted/reinstalled ubuntu AGAIN

this time i got all the new updates from the package manager, but didnt try to install my own kernel, or install nvidia drivers from the nvidia site

all i did was type the apt-get install nvidia-glx
and edit the 2 lines in the xorg.conf

rebooted.. 100% perfect.. i have the newest nvidia drivers, and madwifi!
so.. i dont get it cause i coulda sworn i tried that 2 days ago and it didnt work
but it worked last night, perfectly. which makes me happy but also makes me wonder what the hell i did wrong the first time ;)

either way im just happy to finally have it set up right

so basically method1 is what i used, it worked
except i didnt install the nvidia-settings thing, for some strange reason when i try to select it in the advanced package manager it tells me it has to uninstall nvidia-glx.. so i decided not to install it ;)

My apologies but I may have mucked something up.

Before I saw your post, I was mucking about, to see if I could get things figured out, on my own. I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver, then reinstall it, but when doing so, after it compiles, it exits with an error related to a libnvidia-tls.so.1 already existing. I tried deleting that particular file, but it still happens.

The file seems to appear in /usr/lib/ and /usr/lib/tls

:-|
Please, don't try to reinstall the driver. Follow my previous advice and then post the content of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

I think your xorg.conf can be crucial in this case.

As my guide for Dapper says, you mustn't install nvidia-settings as it's alerady included in the nvidia-glx package.

Hi there, new guy to Linux, here.
I've tried both methods 1 and 2, to not much avail. X kept complaining about it not being able to load a kernel module since the video card was unsupported.
Any suggestions on which specific drivers I'd have to use and/or log files I'd have to post to get this GeForce 2 Ti sitting in my AGP slot working with hardware acceleration?

I had corrected that but only in the "HOW TO UNINSTALL THE DRIVER" section.

I forgot to change it in Method 1.

Thanks for making me notice :) .

You shouldn't have used Method 1 and Method 2 together.

Uninstall the driver from Method 2:
Log out
Press CTRL+ALT+F1
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo sh name_of_the_nvidia_installer --uninstall

(replace name_of_the_nvidia_installer with the name of the nvidia installer you used)

Uninstall the driver from Method 1
sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-common


Install the Legacy driver:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy nvidia-settings linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`-nvidia-legacy

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

METHOD 2


cd “directory where you have the nvidia installer”
su
CC=gcc-3.4
export CC
exit
CC=gcc-3.4
export CC

I downloaded Nvidia driver 8178 to use in method #2.
All went fine till I reached step 10. After su my password
could not be authenticated. I stuck am there now. Has any
one else experienced it as well?

If that happens it might mean that you skipped step 3 in Method 2.

Please, don't try to reinstall the driver. Follow my previous advice and then post the content of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

I think your xorg.conf can be crucial in this case.

Since X broke, with the modified xorg.conf, I restored it to my original, which is as follows:

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Those are, to the best of my knowledge, the defaults from before I installed the driver.


EDIT: Something I remembered, not sure if its relevant or not. A few days before this, I was toying with installing the nvidia drivers from the repositories. I changed the PCI info in xorg.conf to fit where the card is 1:5:0, and upon restarting X, I could hear the loginscreen come up (from the little drum roll it makes), but it was blank.
When rebooting, the hotplug subsystems failed again, but the error was different.
/etc/init.d/rsC (I think thats how the capitalization was, anyways, I scribbled it down pretty quickly) segmentation fault.

Great guide! But i got one problem.
After doing the apt-get linux-image and headers section my wlan0 goes bye bye :(
Why do i lose my wlan when installing the new image? :(

I got a D-link dwlg520 artheros card.

Edit: Oh and im using Method 2, trying to install latest drivers from nvidia.com

The problem is that if you want to use Method 2 you have to remove the restricted modules for your kernel BUT if you want to use the wlan you need the restricted modules.

1) You should uninstall the drivers from method 2:
Press CTRL-ALT-F1 (so as to get to the command line, not a windowed terminal, but out of the graphical interface GUI)

Login with your username and password (if required)

Stop the xserver:

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (OR "kdm stop" if you use KDE)

Restore your old xorg.conf

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf

NOTE: if the backup of your old xorg.conf doesn't work or you lost it try this command (so as to regenerate a clean xorg.conf): sudo dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Uninstall the driver

cd path_to_the_nvidia_installer

sudo sh name_of_the_nvidia_installer --uninstall

Restart the xserver

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start (or "kdm start" if you use KDE)

Then reinstall the restricted modules for your kernel to have the wlan connection back.

2) You can download the restricted modules from the internet:
type this command and see its output to see the version of your kernel:
uname -r

get to this address (from a computer with an internet connection):
http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/ubuntu/pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12/
and download the linux-restricted-modules for your kernel which will have a name such as:
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-10-k7_2.6.12.4-11.1_i386.deb

Make sure the part in red matches the output of the command "uname -r", i.e. if uname -r gave you 2.6.12-10-k7 then you would download the file in the example above.

After you download the file:
cd path_to_the_deb_file
sudo dpkg -i name_of_the_file

Then, if everything goes ok, you can reboot

Since X broke, with the modified xorg.conf, I restored it to my original, which is as follows:
keep a backup of your current xorg.conf.

Modify this part of your xorg.conf in the following way:

Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation"
Driver "vesa"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DELL E772p"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 30-70
VertRefresh 50-160
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "NVIDIA Corporation"
Monitor "DELL E772p"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 1
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 4
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 15
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection

Then save the file.
Log out
Press CTRL+ALT+F1

If the xserver works then you can install the nvidia driver.

Are there anyway of me using the latest nvidia driver and not lose my wlan?
Will method 3 work when making my own restricted module?

Use Method 1 if you can.

Otherwise you should compile the driver for your wlan (so as not to use the restricted modules) and use Method 2.

There is a howto that shows how to keep wifi drivers from 'linux-restricted-modules' at this link:

http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide#Madwifi_Drivers_in_Breez y_Badger

Basically, you copy the modules you want to keep from

/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile/
to
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/

before you uninstall the linux-restricted-modules package.
Then you do
sudo depmod -a $(uname -r)

and uninstall the restricted modules package. Then, reboot and do the driver install. You will have to do this each time you upgrade the kernel.

I have a problem with a 23 inch HD Apple LCD Montor.

It works fine on the nv driver, not at all with the nvidia driver. The attached TV will work as the primary on the nvidia driver.

I followed method 2.

Allright. So I followed your steps. I managed to get back into Gnome (though I had to change the PCI to 1:5:0.
Now, in Gnome, I get display on the screen, when the monitor cable is plugged into the card, while during boot, I have to have it in the onboard card.

xorg.conf (the relevant parts) looks like this now:


Section "Device"
Identifier "Nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:5:0"
Option "UseFBDev" "true"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DELL E772p"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 30-70
VertRefresh 50-160
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Nvidia"
Monitor "DELL E772p"
DefaultDepth 24

Would it be safe to change the BIOS setting now, or ?

EDIT:
Okay, it seems not.
I tried changing the BIOS to "auto" instead of Onboard.
At the hotplugs, it crashes with a segmentation fault.
The end of the error goes:

/etc/rsC.d/S40hotplug: line 95: 5689 segmentation fault
/etc/hotplug/$name.rc $1 >/dev/null 2>&1

then:
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and see which videocard has been detected.

Then report to me.

Alright, I have looked everywhere for a straight-forward solution to my problem (and if I missed it, Im sorry). I have an Inspiron 8200 with a GeForce Go 440 card. When I installed Ubuntu (v5.10) as well as the nvidia-glx/-settings packages, and run nvidia-glx-config. Everythings works, I have 3D accelleration, X-server, Planet-PenguinRacer, the works.
After a few weeks, hardware accelleration is disabled, and anything requiring 'glx' fails to run.

I have tried reinstalling the drivers and the kernel modules. I even reinstalled Ubuntu, and the same thing happened after updating all the packages.

If any of this sounds familiar I would appreciate any help you can give.

I used the same xorg.conf settings and back down to Nvidia version 7676 and still a blank screen. With the Nvidia driver, the reading of the EDID parameters from the monitor fails (the Nv driver does not; see below):

Can you try to disable EDID?

Try this:
open your xorg.conf and add this to the Section "monitor":
Option "IgnoreEDID" "true"

Then restart the xserver (log out and press CTRL+ALT+Backspace)

Alright, I have looked everywhere for a straight-forward solution to my problem (and if I missed it, Im sorry). I have an Inspiron 8200 with a GeForce Go 440 card. When I installed Ubuntu (v5.10) as well as the nvidia-glx/-settings packages, and run nvidia-glx-config. Everythings works, I have 3D accelleration, X-server, Planet-PenguinRacer, the works.
After a few weeks, hardware accelleration is disabled, and anything requiring 'glx' fails to run.

I have tried reinstalling the drivers and the kernel modules. I even reinstalled Ubuntu, and the same thing happened after updating all the packages.

If any of this sounds familiar I would appreciate any help you can give.
If you own a GeForce4 420 Go (or a Geforce 440 go) you should follow these steps:

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/options

Add this option at the end of the file:

options nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=1

CTRL+O to save CTRL+X to exit

Edit your xorg.conf:

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

get to the "Section Device" and add the following options

Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option"IgnoreEDID""true"
Option"IgnoreEdidFreqs""true"
Option"GenerateRTList""0"
Option"OverridePolarity""1"

If you added the options that section should (approximately) look like the example below:

Section "Device"
Identifier"NVIDIA Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go]"
Driver"nvidia"
BusID"PCI:1:0:0"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option"IgnoreEDID""true"
Option"IgnoreEdidFreqs""true"
Option"GenerateRTList""0"
Option"OverridePolarity""1"
EndSection

I tried the option "IgnoreEDID" and that did not help.

The card has two DVI outputs and a TV out. I had the option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP-0" and got the error reading EDID. Maybe it is reading the DVI that does not have a monitor on it. I change it to DFP-1 and it now works and can read the EDID.

Seems like a bug with the Nvidia driver.

Thank You for your input.

I need to diagnose the error.
Type:

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (if you use GDM)
OR
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop (if you use KDM)

Then:
startx -- -verbose 5 -logverbose 5

You will see several lines with the same error.

Then if you can't get to the command line press CTRL+ALT+F1 or CTRL+C (select NO if it asks you if you want to see the output of the error or something like that)

Then type this in order to copy the output of the error to your home folder:
sudo cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log /home/your_username/Xorg.0.log
(Of course you have to replace "your_username" with your username)

Access the GNOME or KDE again in the following way:
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Set the driver back to "nv" instead of "nvidia"
CTRL+O to save
CTRL+X to exit

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (if you use GDM)
OR
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop (if you use KDM)

Then
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start (if you use GDM)
OR
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start (if you use KDM)


Post the content of that file (which you can find under /home/your_username/Xorg.0.log )

Hi,

I've just tried to install Nvidia driver 8178, following method 2. It worked fine untill I started Gnome. Then, my computer freezed, and I can't even use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to enter console.

I tried it in recovery mode, and the problem I've got the same problem.

I have a Toshiba Satelite Pro laptop with Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go card.
How can I uninstall the new driver and use the nv driver coming with Ubuntu?

Thanks!!!

Se the BIOS to "auto" (so as not to use the onboard card)
Select "Recovery Mode" from the GRUB menu (you will see it few time after turning on the computer)

It will boot to the command line.
Type:
dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

then:
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and see which videocard has been detected.

Then report to me.

It still hits a segmentation fault. Seems the same error as when just booting regularly.

Can you uninstall driver 7667 and try 8178 (which is more compatible)?
Log out
CTRL+ALT+F1
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo sh name_of_the_nvidia_installer --uninstall

then set the driver to "nv" in your xorg.conf

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

And download and install driver 8178.

Hi,

I've just tried to install Nvidia driver 8178, following method 2. It worked fine untill I started Gnome. Then, my computer freezed, and I can't even use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to enter console.

I tried it in recovery mode, and the problem I've got the same problem.

I have a Toshiba Satelite Pro laptop with Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go card.
How can I uninstall the new driver and use the nv driver coming with Ubuntu?

Thanks!!!
If you own a GeForce4 420 Go you should follow these steps:

Boot in Recovery mode (the xserver won't be started)

Type
nano /etc/modprobe.d/options

Add this option at the end of the file:

options nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=1

CTRL+O to save CTRL+X to exit

Edit your xorg.conf:

nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

get to the "Section Device" and add the following options

Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option"IgnoreEDID""true"
Option"IgnoreEdidFreqs""true"
Option"GenerateRTList""0"
Option"OverridePolarity""1"

If you added the options that section should (approximately) look like the example below:

Section "Device"
Identifier"NVIDIA Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go]"
Driver"nvidia"
BusID"PCI:1:0:0"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option"IgnoreEDID""true"
Option"IgnoreEdidFreqs""true"
Option"GenerateRTList""0"
Option"OverridePolarity""1"
EndSection

Then save the file.

type:
reboot

It should work then.

It still hits a segmentation fault. Seems the same error as when just booting regularly.
Ok, then set the bios back to onboard.

And edit your xorg.conf (set it back as it was before, so that your nvidia card appears in your xorg):

but this time REMOVE the line in red

Section "Device"
Identifier "Nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:5:0"
Option "UseFBDev" "true"
EndSection

Then install the nvidia driver (you might want to try Method 2 with driver 8178)

I've added a new point in the Problems Sections which will solve a few problems with Nvidia GeForce4 420/440 Go card

Can you uninstall driver 7667 and try 8178 (which is more compatible)?
Log out
CTRL+ALT+F1
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo sh name_of_the_nvidia_installer --uninstall

then set the driver to "nv" in your xorg.conf

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

And download and install driver 8178.

I did, what you told. Installation of 8178 went smoothly. I removed every
trace of 7667 manually as it had already been uninstalled. However,
after I had fed

12)
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

...got a black screen! Pressing CTRL+ALT+F1, transferred me to a fuschia
coloured screen with a prompt! No Gnome yet in sight. The last ditch battle
has yet to be fought.
Thanks for being so patient.

Ok, perhaps I already suggested this (my memory is not that good any more;) ): try point 4 of the PROBLEMS SECTION

Thanks alot guys, you helped solve half of my problem. I used method 2 and everything worked up until restarting my X server with the nvidia driver line. It wasn't found, but I found the files and put them in the correct location, while this works, it leaves me unable to use GL apps, since X will freeze. Any solution would be much appreciated(I wanna play with Compiz and Xgl XD). Using Dapper test flight 5.

/lib/modules/2.6.15-19-386/kernel/drivers/ *installed by the nvidia installer*
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/ *apparently needed, putting them here works*

I did try point 4 as you suggested but restart meant black screen once again.
Adding or removing the "Accel" "Off" option made no difference either.

Talking of bad memory, you remind me of a chess player who plays with 50 people
simultaneously.



Code:

Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation NV40 [GeForce 6200 TurboCache]"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "NvAGP" "0"
Option "RenderAccel" "Off"

Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" “Off”

Can you try the script I've written? It's in that guide.

You can ask me further questions by posting on that thread. This guide is for Breezy.

You can try to pass "noapic" as boot parameter.

If you don't know how to do it, have a look at this guide of mine:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=53094

read this section "b) If you have installed Ubuntu..."

If that doesn't solve the problem I think you should ask on the Unofficial Nvidia Forums.

Amazingly I uninstalled the official nvidia package and did an apt-get install nvidia-glx and it worked.

Something weird here:

My nvidia driver was working fine before but this morning when I boot up my pc, xserver was not able to load. I have also tried with my another HDD (with Dapper) and same problem too! Could be a problem with my hardware? Now, I have to use the "nv" driver ...Here is the Xorg.log:

[QUOTE=Neo40]Something weird here:

My nvidia driver was working fine before but this morning when I boot up my pc, xserver was not able to load. I have also tried with my another HDD (with Dapper) and same problem too! Could be a problem with my hardware? Now, I have to use the "nv" driver ...Here is the Xorg.log:/QUOTE]
This is the error:
(II) LoadModule: "glx"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so
dlopen: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so: undefined symbol: _nv001206gl
(EE) Failed to load /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so
(II) UnloadModule: "glx"
(EE) Failed to load module "glx" (loader failed, 7)

1) Which Method did you use to install the driver?

2) What's the model of your card?

3) Please post the output of these commands:
whereis libglx.so

uname -r

4) if you need help with Dapper and the nvidia card try this:

Thanks for your fast reply!
-I used METHOD 1
-My card is a GeForce 4 MX 4000
-libglx.so seems not to be there??
