Installed Nvidia Driver and now cant get out of tty1

[Akaedintov]

Installed 10.10 Ubuntu for the first time and without problem problem.

At first i entered the ubuntu from grub with no problems. Ubuntu has found 2 drivers needs permission to install. One of them was wireless connection driver and the other one was for Nvidia. After i allowed them , it rebooted and since then i cant see my ubuntu desktop ever again. It always comes to a black screen like this;

Ubuntu 10.10 Akaedintov tty1

akaedintov login:
password:


i enter these informations and and prompt comes in;
aka@akaedintov: ~$


Any help ?

Thanks.

from the prompt:

sudo rm -f /etc/X11/xorg.conf
( if an error says: dont exist, then its ok)

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo dpkg --configure -a

then reboot and check driver activation: system admin additional driver

"If X is still not starting, add this to /etc/xorg.cfg:"

[Akaedintov]

Log in to the tty.

sudo service gdm stop

sudo service gdm start

What is the error message that you see?

I'm having this problem too. I've tried every suggestion so far, but none help.
@dabl I tried that, but it didn't give an error it just said it was assigned to process 1000 something (can't remember exactly).
OP, did you manage to figure it out?

[Akaedintov]

non of these solutions worked. There is still no desktop coming trough.
i logged in and used
"sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current"

and in recovery mode , used failsafe(use generic configurations).

now i'm using non updated versions. This driver is not active but it is really annoying since i cant use my HDMI or 3D or something. I'm waiting for a Nvidia ION 2 Driver ..nothing i can do for now.
