Well, after some ubuntu upgrades to my nvidia-current I started to have problems everytime I suspended or locked the screen since it crashes while checking my password when i'm trying to log back in.
So, i tried to reinstall my nvidia drivers. I deleted all nvidia drivers, and then i tried to reinstall the nvidia-current.
I added blacklist nouveau to blacklist.conf, then I installed nvidia-current using apt-get (after update) and when I typed:


sudo modprobe nvidia-currentThis error pops up in the terminal:


FATAL: Error inserting nvidia_current (/lib/modules/2.6.32-22-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko): No such deviceHow can I fix it? Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you very much!

" sudo modprobe nvidia-current"

never do that :mad:

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -f

"the driver is activated but not currently in use"
