virtual terminal pasword

[fingerrish]

i am trying to install NVIDIA driver update.
file name: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22-pkg1.run
first i run in terminal: sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22-pkg1.run
but installation doesn't start because it says that i need to turn off X server.
i found in some forums that i have to use: sudo etc/init.d/gdm stop
after running this i have black screen with some writings that everything is ok.
then i run virtual terminal Ctrl+Alt+F1
then i run again: sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22-pkg1.run
asks me password - i type the password which i use every-time in terminal, but it says: login incorrect
.
so which password i need to use or is there any simpler way to install this driver update?

Wait a second there. When you pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to another console, did you log in with your username and password first before you tried to install nVidia driver?

which username? where can i find it?

[taurus]

Don't you have a login name that you use to login when you boot up Ubuntu?

[fingerrish]

it doesn't show login boot.
just starts auto.

[fingerrish]

ok friend came and installed this driver but now i have other problem.
when i start ubuntu it shows that kernel and x server doesn't work.
so what i need to do to make them work with new update?

Even if you have the auto login, there is still a username for your account. One way to find out is to open a terminal and run

Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal

id

What kind of nvidia card do you have? I assume you have checked the System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers first. And yes, it probably doesn't have the latest version but at least you are certain that it would work.

I assume you are currently log in from a prompt. If you are, post the output of this command.


cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

What is the error message when you run this command from a prompt?


startx
If the X server doesn't start with your new nvidia driver, you can reverse back to the generic nv driver. Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf


sudo nano -Bw /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and replace the nvidia with nv.

Save it and exit with <Ctrl>x and Y. Now, see what happens if you start X again.
