Hello,
I tried most methods suggested on many sites to install drivers
## through the additional driver panel only
## through the Nvidia.run file I downloaded
## through the terminal using apt-get
all failed to start ubuntu gui it takes me to the console login and I noticed it says "saned disabled" edit /etc/..something..
this problem made me install ubuntu again three times and every time I activate the driver then install the driver Nvidia.run or through apt-get and both leads to a black screen tty1 login
so what to do now I installed and removed many things and I won't reinstall ubuntu again
Also I typed compiz and this came on
root@ubuntu:/home/sherbieny# compiz
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":1.0".
compiz (core) - Fatal: Root visual is not a GL visual
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :1.0
Launching fallback window manager
please help I wan't to install properly so that I can start normally and enable the extra visual effects and the custom effects
Please elaborate the steps clearly
New Info:
when I enter nvidia-settings : server X opens and says
You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server
when i enter nvidia-xconfig as root and restart nothing happens
and when I enter:
nvidia-detector it says none
and when I enter: nvidia-smi
Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has version 260.19.21,
but this NVIDIA driver component has version 260.19.29. Please make
sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components
have the same version.
