Hello,
I am trying to set up the restricted nvidia driver from the live cd so I can set my monitor to 1920x1080 and 60hz. When I run nvidia-xconfig as root, I get the following message:
root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# nvidia-xconfig
Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".
VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Undefined Device "(null)" referenced by Screen "Default
Screen".
Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'
New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
How do I change the settings in nvidia x server settings? Can I do this manually? Here is xorg.conf:
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
