I've pulled the xserver-xorg packages from Lucid, and used the Maverick nvidia-96 package. Pinned xorg, xserver-xorg on the Lucid release using "aptitude hold xserver-xorg". Working nvidia drivers again for the old system.
I'm not on that machine at present, sorry to not post specific versions. Can someone at least post a nvidia-96 and perhaps nvidia-glx-96 update that require the old xserver-xorg? This should stop people from installing the new xorg and breaking things again. Current Requires lists: x11-common (>= 1:7.0.0) which perhaps should also state < 1:9.0.0 ? -- ABI change in xorg 1.9 breaks legacy nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/626974 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
