As soon as I install Ubuntu (9.10 and 10.04, as far as I know) my card and everything works fine.
It then bugs me to install the restricted (or just the new video driver) and once I do, I get tiny black squares all over my windows and window borders, as seen here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1370292
I really want to run compiz and I was told over and over again that I shouldn't install the nVidia driver from the website, I should stay with that one. Has this been reported before? If not what should I try?
This is what is in my computer (all newegg items):
I'd really enjoy getting Ubuntu to work on my new machine, it works great on my old one and I really miss Ubuntu and it annoys me so much that I can't get it to work properly anymore.Code:N82E16820145184 MEM 2Gx2|CORS TWIN2X4096-6400C5 R 2 N82E16800999088 GIFT NVIDIA COD - WORLD AT WAR % 1 N82E16835100007 CPU THERMPASTE|AS5-3.5G % 1 N82E16813130185 MB MSI P43 NEO3-F 775 RT 1 N82E16819115131 CPU INTEL|C2Q Q9400 2.66G 775 45N R 1 N82E16811998121 FAN APEVIA(ASPIRE) |120MCF12SL-UBLR 1 N82E16814150329 VGA XFX GX260NADFF GTX260 896M RT 1 N82E16800999149 GIFT NVIDIA TERMINATOR SALVATION 1 N82E16827151187 DVD BURNER SAMSUNG | SH-S223B % 2 N82E16822136178 HD 500G|WD 7K 8M SATA2 WD5000AAJS % 1 N82E16817341018 PSU OCZ|OCZ700MXSP 700W RT 1 N82E16811998101 FAN|APEVIA(ASPIRE) CF4SL-UBL-LED R 1 N82E16811119137 CASE CM|RC-690-KKN1-GP BK RT
