I know this must be old Hat for alot of you but Im having problem with my Harware drivers.
I finally got my screen resolution working, but when I want to activate my Nvidia Drivers thru System>Administration>Hardware drivers. I get Cannot Change Driver. Reconfiguring x.org videodrivers is not possible /etc/X11/xorg.conf is invalid.
I have Nvidia 5500GT video card
Release Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid)
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz
NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 173.14.12 Thu Jul 17 18:11:36 PDT 2008
Also when I go to Nvidia X server Settings I get message that Im not using the Nvidia driver
This is my etc/X11/xorg.conf
xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
