Hi,
After upgrading to Karmic I have the following problem: most of the time I boot into Kubuntu, right after I see the NVIDIA splashscreen and kdm should start, Kubuntu shows a message stating that it is started in low-graphics mode due to it not being able to detect my input and videosettings. It then offers me the options of booting in low-graphics mode, fixing the problem, or spawning a shell. Now, most of the time, when I choose shell and I try to login, kdm immediately starts (while I'm typing the username or passwd) and shows up properly, without any low-graphics mode error. I can then login and everything works flawlessly. Anyone has an idea how I could fix it?
I am running:
- Karmic Koala 9.10, upgraded from 9.04
- Proprietary nvidia-drivers, installed by hand after the update, version 190.42
- Kernel 2.6.31-14-generic
I already tried to run nvidia-settings and save the settings there to my xorg.conf, added nvidia to autoloading modules and disabling the nv modules, but all to no avail.
