http://ubuntuforums.org – Can someone please help me? everytime I restart, I get this message saying "Failed to initialize the Nvidia kernel..." and then have to run in low graphics mode. I installed v. 195, rebooted and then started to get this message. Here's a copy of my xorg.conf file if it helps. Code: # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig # nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder63) Sun Nov 22 18:17:43 PST 2009 # nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings # nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (buildd@einsteinium) Sat Oct 24 07:53:14 UTC 2009 Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "CRT-1" HorizSync 28.0 - 55.0 VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0 Option "DPMS" # HorizSync source: builtin, VertRefresh source: builtin EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Monitor0" Option "TwinView" "0" Option "metamodes" "1152x864 +0+0" Option "NoLogo" "True" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection Section "Module" Load "glx" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" # generated from default EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" Option "Xinerama" "0" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" BoardName "GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS" Driver "nvidia" Option "NoLogo" "True" EndSection (Hardware)
