    Can't install nvidia-319

    I am trying to install nvidia-319 for bumblebee 3.2. Apparently 319 is the only working driver for bumblebee 3.2. So I tried to install it. :

    sudo apt-get install  nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319

    E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
    Can I just ignore the dependencies temporarily? Just to replace the current nvidia driver with 319?

    Re: Can't install nvidia-319

    I had to use synaptic to make sense of it all.
    But just choose nvidia-319-dev and that should pull in nvidia-settings-319
    If any other Nvidia Drivers are installed it will remove them.
    I did not try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-319-dev && sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings-319"
    So if you want to try that it might go smooth?

    Just to be sure, You are using raring (13.10)?
    and make sure your fully updated
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade
    If this is the case add these two lines to your ?etc/apt/sources.list

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu/ raring main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu/ raring main

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install nvidia-319

    Re: Can't install nvidia-319

    Please do remove nvidia-304 before attempting to install nvidia-319.
    Only 1 driver should be installed.
    The nvidia-319 in official saucy repo (restricted main) does not have any dependency issues in a pure saucy setup.

    Re: Can't install nvidia-319

    software properties gtk still says this, even after I removed nvidia-304 and what not. Did a apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade, reboot.

    for nvidia-319:

    Re: Can't install nvidia-319

    @ajmcello what command did you use to remove the 304 driver, and did you reboot to make sure you were using the nouveau driver after removing the closed source Nvidia driver?

    I use apt-get. Whatever I try, it fails when trying to use 319.

    aptitude search '~i?provides(xorg-driver-binary)'

    I've tried removing 304, and it installs 310, I remove 310 and it installs 304, all automaticly.

    aptitude search nouveau
