2009-10-27 16:22:37 Michael Vogt nvidia-common (Ubuntu Karmic): milestone karmic-updates
2009-10-28 13:06:05 Michael Vogt description Binary package hint: update-manager The issue is simple: Upgrading from Hardy to Karmic didn't remove the file /ect/modprobe.d/lrm-video belonging to linux-restricted-modules-common This produced the issue that all nvidia drivers under Karmic were failing to start. I do not know how that file survived, even if I didn't have linux-restricted-modules-common installed, but pls add a small check in the python script to delete this file if present, as it will save lot of time of all affected by this issue. Thanks Marco TEST CASE: 1. use hardy kubuntu install 2. install linux-restricted-modules-common 3. perform hardy-> karmic upgrade 4. verify that /ect/modprobe.d/lrm-video is still there 5. repeat 1,2 6. enable hardy-proposed 7. repeat 3 8 verify that /ect/modprobe.d/lrm-video is now gone Binary package hint: update-manager The issue is simple: Upgrading from Hardy to Karmic didn't remove the file /ect/modprobe.d/lrm-video belonging to linux-restricted-modules-common This produced the issue that all nvidia drivers under Karmic were failing to start.
