Nvidia broken on 12.04 64bit

Hi
I got this yesterday fixed by installing the default from the Software Center. Now booting this morning I got a black screen. Installed from terminal the downloaded, newest Nvidia driver which brings back the very same error as yesterday:

Does Nvidia even test Linux drivers at all? Sigh...
Any solution for this disaster?

[carl4926]

Just to be clear.
You are now using the manually installed blob? Having removed the driver from the repos?

[ahso4271]

I get this error with the newest. Hence I only removed/reinstalled default with the software center. Works until the next reboot and voilà I'm back to a black greeting screen. This goes on and on....sigh reminds me of Linux 20 years ago...

[carl4926]

I'm really thick
You need to explain this in terms that I can comprehend
ATM I'm struggling with your explanation.

[ahso4271]

maybe try google translate?

The newest Nvidia driver -> below error not finding libGL
Default driver -> black screen after reboot

[carl4926]

you could use your install cd and chroot in to your system, run sysnapic.
I have the current driver as supplied by default from Ubuntu and it's fine (_64)

Removing nvidia altogether should go back to nouveau

[ahso4271]

Congratulations, after reinstalling default with synaptic, it doesn't even reboot anymore.
12. 04 64bit is ******* UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all kind of bugs, reinstalled all crap already several times.
What kind of jerks are working on that?

I thought Nvidia And latest Xorg aren't compatible at the moment.
