I found the reason. When the script /sbin/lrm-manager (executed by upstart during boot on /etc/rcS.d/S07linux-restricted-modules-common) loads kernel modules, it loads all so nvidia, nvidia_legacy, nvidia_new will be loaded, respectively. So after loading nvidia, loading nvidia_legacy and nvidia_new has no effect. Essentially, loading them all is not appropriate. I found useful script /sbin/lrm-video but I cannot find what uses it. I think lrm-manager should behave differently to fix this problem.
Workaround: Modify /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common to skip unnecessary kernel modules. For new driver (9755) users, the content is DISABLED_MODULES="nvidia nvidia_legacy" -- nvidia kernel module has version mismatch with nvidia xorg module (manual install?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107646 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
