Ok, here's exactly what I did: 1. Reinstalled Ubuntu Gutsy 5 on my second partition. 2. On first boot I immediately ran Update Manager and installed all of the updates. 3. I wasn't asked to, but for good measure I rebooted. 4. Immediately after rebooting I opened the Restricted Drivers Manager. 5.

I am at work right now. Hopefully tonight I will have time to do this. My current install is "corrupted" with the NVidia installer, so I will reformat, install all updates, use the restricted drivers tools and then when it fails on reboot, I will run those commands and let you know what I get. Th

DavidBaucum: Can you post the output of dpkg -l nvidia\* | grep ii upload the /var/log/Xorg.0.log along with the output of dmesg right after X fails to start up from the fresh install that failed? This should help narrow down the issue. Can you also indicate which version of Gutsy you were using?

The results are as follows; 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Unknown device [10de:0400] (rev a1) I understand that problems with the NVidia installer are beyond the support of the Ubuntu staff. I don't think the problem lies with NVidia, but specifically with Gutsy

The card is an NVidia 8600 GTS found at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130084 My PC has Feisty 32-bit, Gutsy 32-bit and Gutsy 64-bit. I think the problem is that under Gutsy (32 & 64 bit), after a reboot, the NVidia module seems to be lost. If I run the NVidia installe
