I'v bought a new graphic card and installed it on my pc. Now - ubuntu won't load, all I get is a command line terminal at the end. I've tried to type startx and got this error:

NVIDIA(0): The NVIDIA GPU at PCI:2:0:0 in not supported by the 173.14.30 NVIDIA driver NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device. Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Now what do I do?

Upgrade from 11 to 12... 3 years 25 weeks ago

Hi,

I've upgraded successfully to version 12 from version 11. However, I've problems with my graphic card in the graphic interface.

Hello everyone.

I run Ubuntu 10.04 and once in a while I stumble upon the following error message on startup:

Code: Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode

The following error was encountered.

I have an ASUS g51vx which has a NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 260M CUDA 1gb graphics card. I have installed ubuntu 9.10 32bit using VMware player running from windows vista 64 bit.

Hi im new here and i need some help please.

im trying to install the driver for my nvidia GeForce 7300 GS i have Fedora 12 installed in an Intel duo core 2 processor 64 bits

kernel installed is 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64

i followed leigh's guide i did the 4 steps but after reboot screen goes blanck and X dont work.

I have had a hell of a weekend trying to get the NVIDIA drivers to work on my DELL XPS Studio 1340. I have been using the real time kernel cause I want to use this to do some multi-track recording. Upon my initial installation of Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit, everything seemed to work great out of the box. However when I connected my Dell 20" LCD monitor I found that it was not detected.

Hi,

I've been trying to get my graphic card working under ubuntu and opensuse but to no avail.

First, i tried through additional drivers, but after installation it keeps saying "this driver is activated but not currently in use". That is 3D-accelerated proprietary graphics driver for NVIDIA cards.

Since I re-installed Ubuntu, I have attempted to install a working nvidia driver. Despite having a functioning NVidia Graphics Card (see below for specifics), I was never offered the chance to install the proprietary driver. As a result, I attempted to install the one from the repos (nvidia_experimental_304).

I was running Fedora 13 on my old computer with a nvidia Geforce FX 5200 graphics card using the nvidia-173xx driver from fusion. After upgrading to Fedora 14 (the first day of its release) the X server wasn't working anymore, the screen just froze up after the progress bar.
