But you still managed to run reportbug from the commend line, so it collected enough information for me to analyze your problem. The nvidia alternative points to the current driver, not the legacy one: remove the nvidia-settings package, the correct one for you is nvidia-settings-legacy-304xx (already installed) (if some parts of the "current" driver are installed, they take precedence over th elegacy driver) > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Dec 4 21:27 /etc/alternatives/nvidia -> > /usr/lib/nvidia/current > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Dec 4 21:27 > /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nv-control-dpy -> > /usr/lib/nvidia/current/nv-control-dpy > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Dec 4 21:27 > /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nvidia-modprobe.conf -> > /etc/nvidia/nvidia-modprobe.conf > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Dec 4 21:27 > /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nvidia-settings -> > /usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-settings > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Dec 4 21:27 > /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nvidia-settings.1.gz -> > /usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-settings.1.gz > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Dec 4 21:27 > /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nvidia-settings.desktop -> > /usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia-settings.desktop Some cruft left over from an ancient driver installation.
