Sorry, I seem to be getting something wrong here. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
Offered me a number of updated packages, but none with the Kernel in them. I've tried installing the daily build and release candidates, but these fail trying to build my Nvidia video driver: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Setting up linux-headers-3.1.0-999-generic (3.1.0-999.201110171146) ... Examining /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d. run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 3.1.0-999-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.1.0-999-generic Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.1.0-999-generic (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-173/173.14.30/build/make.log for more information. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (log file attached) This seems to suggest that I need the Kernel sources installed. Tried installing these via Synaptic, but as all I have there is 3.0.0-12.20 and 3.0.0.12.14, these are probably unsuitable. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds doesn't seem to have any reference to the overall source (I installed the AMD64 headers and image, along with the architecture-independent headers). ** Attachment added: "Make log file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/876473/+attachment/2557081/+files/make.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876473 Title: Kernel 3.0.0-12 makes system very sluggish To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/876473/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
