Hi community
After my manual installation of nvidia driver the windowframes are gone and when I want to open the terminal, there only comes a white window with no cursor ... what I have to do?

You might wanna install nvidia-settings and use that to configure it.
so what do you think I have to configure?
The resolution settings doesnt solve my problem
Try saving to X configuration file and restart. Back up /etc/X11/xorg.conf before you do.

it doesnt change anything
I'm assuming you're running compiz. What happens when you use metacity instead of compiz?
Code:metacity --replace
Okay. This might fix your problem:
Backup your xorg.conf first though.
Open xorg.conf for editting.Code:sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
Add the following line into the Section "Screen" part.Code:sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Restart X.Code:Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"
Hope that fixes it.Code:Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
Edit: In case you can't start X anymore or the resolution becomes very low, go to the commandline (Ctrl+Alt+1) and login. Then type:
to restore the "working" config file.Code:sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
