http://askubuntu.com – I have a toshiba satellite L750 laptop with a video card "Nvidia geforce GT525m" on. I would like to "dual-boot" my pc with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (windows is already on). I saw from an other discussion Is there a driver for a NVIDIA GeForce GT525M? that there might be some suitable drivers for my video card. Are they suitable for this Ubuntu version? How can i possibly install ubuntu? Do I have to install the drivers first? I tried to install ubuntu from a cd but it wouldn't work Thank you for your help Federico (HowTos)

Greetings,

I need to install the drivers for my Nvidia Geforce 540M video card in order to install Bumblebee. How can I do so?

Thanks

P.S: I tried some methods I found on the net up to no avail.

When I install the recommended drivers, even the latest from their ppa, on reboot, xwindows won't start, it just boots to a console login.

If I purge nvidia and reboot, it works with the builtin ubuntu drivers, even 3D, but system reports the experience as 'standard' using driver Gallium 0.4 on NV92 .

I would like to get nvidia drivers working to see if it performs better.
