I have the 180 drivers for my nvidia 260 that are in the repo, and they work, but are very buggy and crash my system. I would like to update to 185 and tried following the guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...nvidia+drivers but everytime it does not work. I disable the 180 drivers, turn off gdm, install the drivers and that all works great, but once I reboot, it comes up with a grey error box about seeing the readme for information and then another grey box with radio buttons with options like run in low graphics for 1 session, restore backed up version, etc. I can get back to the desktop from there but there is only 2d enabled. I've tried a few times and it just refuses to work. I'm back to where I was, I uninstalled the 185 and reinstalled the 180 that are in the repo but I really need new drivers. What's going on, how do I upgrade the drivers?
I'm running jaunty 64 bit, geforce 260, intel dual core e8500. If you need more info lemme know.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
