Subject: [Bug 1369216] Re: gpu-manager: /etc/modprobe.d is not a file

So I'm having this problem too. I'm on Wily - pretty vanilla install, although I'm using Gnome once I get that far. I don't have a graphics card at all, just whatever intel put on the cruddy i3 mobo that's in this $300 laptop - so no additional drivers.

What is strange is that I didn't have any problems yesterday, and I am today, and yet I didn't install anything yesterday or do any system upgrading.

Just wanted to say that it's not only in nvidia drivers.

If you need any more details, or logs or debugging help, I would gladly provide.

thanks
