Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-glx
When I attempt to start x with the nvidia driver, x fails to start with
the error message:
(EE) NVIDIA(0): The NVIDIA kernel module does not appear to be receiving
(EE) NVIDIA(0): interrupts generated by the NVIDIA graphics device
(EE) NVIDIA(0): PCI:1:0:0. Please see Chapter 5: Common Problems in the
(EE) NVIDIA(0): README for additional information.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!
Previously, I also had a problem on this computer where it couldn't find the
nvidia kernel module. This problem is resolved now -- I believe that this was
fixed somehow when I installed linux-restricted-modules-generic, even though
I'm actually using the -386 kernel. Previously there was no nvidia.ko in
/lib/modules/2.6.20-13-386/volatile/, now there is. (I don't really know the
reason why.)
** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
