I had the same issue with nvidia 96.43.09. So it seems that this issue is more related to video group not being created, than drivers itself.
I fixed this with, creating video group and added users to it. Then modified /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-kernel-nkc as suggested (chainged video group number to correct one). -- NVIDIA: Direct rendering failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281747 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
