Problems after apt-get upgrade

[mogeb]

Hi,
so i made a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade libgdbus-1-2
Which started a lot of updates to other packages. After restarting my machine, I couldn't even start a session as i got the following message:



The following error was encountered. You may need to update your configuration to solve this.
(EE) NVIDIA: Failed to lead the NVIDIA kernel module.


Maybe I should reinstall some drivers? If yes, how can I do so?

Thank you

I don't recognize the error, but sure, reinstall the drivers. You need an Internet connection for this, though.


$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current # get rid of stray configuratiaon files
$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings

Thank you for your reply. But the thing is I can't access any session on my machine. I can only run kubuntu from the Live CD. So how can i install the drivers?
Can I just copy/paste the /etc/ folder from the CD?

anyone?

Try booting into recovery mode and pick fix X (or something along those lines). It should restore your xorg.conf to use the quite unaccelerated vesa driver, from which point you should be able to set up a net connection and reinstall your proper drivers.
