PROBLEM:
On my system, X is unable to load the NVIDIA binary driver after the kernel
update. Not the famous "kernel module and X driver version mismatch", the X log
just says it encountered an error loading the NVIDIA driver module. The package
versions are:
nvidia-kernel-common 20051028+1ubunt
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
Involved software:
Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04) with desktop effects (Compiz)
Sun Java 1.6.0u1
nvidia-glx-new drivers 1.0.9775 (for my NVidia 6600GT video card)
With this combination, Java applications work with desktop effects
activated, which is no
