Ubuntu 8.04
Nvidia GeForce 8400gs
Trying to upgrade my video drivers. The current version I get from the repo is 169.12 and the newest version from Nvidia is 200.19.21.
I have been able to install the drivers just fine. The problem comes at restart. When the computer restarts it is unable to load the driver and gives me th good old configuration bs at startup.
If I stop gdm and install the driver then start gdm everything works just fine. So I need to find out why it doesn't reload after a restart.
I have a feeling it has to do with removing the old drivers that are on here but i wasn't able to figure out how to do that.
any ideas guy?
