Hi!
MAFoElffen, Thanks!!
Short response:

Eureka! It worked!! well 99% anyway!
Though the result, so far, does not seem to be much different from Linux 11.10 on 2.6.38-8, except that WiFi connects almost instantly.
Slightly longer response:
'sudo update' gives: update command not found: should it not be "sudo apt-get update"?.
Similarly, should " reconfigure light-dm" not be " reconfigure lightdm".?
I tried them both ways. The latter showed lightdm already selected as default.
The update gave a long list of errors and warnings about could not resolve
http://Ftp.ticklers.org....ubuntu. Presumably, because WiFi was not connected.
Even longer report:
' sudo nVidia uninstall' gave:
Code:
"ERROR: File '/usr/lib-xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so' is not a symbolic link". [OK].
And: " unable to restore File 'usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so.1.2' ". [OK].
Then: "uninstall 270.41.19 complete".
'Install nvidia-current' went OK.
' Sudo nvidia-config' gave four warnings about unable to find CorePointer and CoreKeyboard, and them not being specified.
I can now access gedit and the Xorg.x.log files.
The crucial bit of Xorg.5.log seems to be:
Code:
(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" ( module-specific error, 0)
(EE) No drivers available.
fatal server error :
no screens found
If you want to see any more or other files please say.
Queries:
1. What is command to show nVidia driver version installed?
Edit: Xorg.0.log shows: "NVIDIA dlloader X Driver
280.13". Is that Nvidia-current.??
2. Does 11.10 Unity no longer support Panels??
Clicking on Applications/Accessories/Panel gives a Launcher that pulses, but nothing changes, if I select it it goes away. ( sorry if that is off topic).
Chao! and thanks again miracle worker.
bogan.
