1) I've installed NVIDIA driver version 173 from ADD/REMOVE in Ubuntu 9.04. But I cannot install version 180(Recommended) from System/Administration/Hardware Drivers.
2) When I try to enable "Normal' or "Extra" in "Appearance Preferences" the message "desktop preferences couldn't be enabled" comes. Plz help

Ya the problem is resolved by configuring the System/Administration/NVIDIA X Server settings.
Still I'm not able to activate NVIDIA driver, Version 180
