Title:
Desktop stops working with propietary NVIDIA drivers.
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Ubuntu 13.10
Acer 5920G with modded BIOS 5920G_MXM_V3.WPH and 9600M GT DDRII
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G96M [GeForce 9600M GT]
(rev a1)
---
I'been using Ubuntu for some years on this laptops without major problems.
After fixing/baking defective 8600m gt three times decided to change it for a
9600m gt,
Flahsed bios with modded one.
Started Ubuntu, Works fine.
Changed to 9600m GT - desktop stops working in several ways after some
minutes (1 to 5 maybe):
-black screen
-mouse and keyboard works but desktop doesn't, no reaction from icons, menus.
¿Unity?
-...
If I change from one privative version to another the result goes from same
problem to no way to problems at startup, display detection problems and not
working at all --> re-install ubuntu.
Changed from privative NVIDIA driver (tested several of the avalable ones in
Aditional drives tab) to noveau and problem is gone. I would prefer to use the
privative one if posible.
I've changed back and forward from privative to noveau several times with
same effect.
I've never had that problem with the 8600m gt.
I've read it could be a bios problem, a unity problem, a nvidia driver
problem... but no solution.
OT.Windows works fine, GPU temp arround 50ºC.
Thanks.
