Ok, did all that - twice. and running off a clean install as well.
used both the latest and the 100.14.19 drivers which someone said somewhere works fine. (and tried almost everything else i have read in this forums)
I get to this point no problems.
No Logo. eventually i get a configuration window, i only have choice of 640*480 or 800*600. when desktop loads i get this error when i attempt to run Nvidia X server settings.sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
12.a) You should see an Nvidia Logo, and then be put at your login screen, you should also be able to enable desktop effects.
¨you do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver....¨
Honestly, am ready to give up. So many people have this issue, and seems the only solutions to be really offered is by those who did not have the issue in the first place
It cant be a total Nvidia issue, my laptop is running fine on the latest drivers and on 8.04, wasnt even a clean install.
