http://ubuntuforums.org – Hello, I have a Lenovo B560 laptop with Nvidia Geforce 310m graphic card and am using Xubuntu 11.10. I just managed to instal drivers from Nvidia website (290.10), but when I restart, Xubuntu splash appears but then it goes black console with some lines like stop blabla (ok), start blabla (ok) and then it does nothing. The only think I can do get graphic enviroment back is Code: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup startx but then, if I understand it right the graphic is running on integrated Intel graphic device, not the Nvidia card. Can someone help me out? I couldn't (Hardware)

Problem with NVidia 2 years 40 weeks ago

Hi,

I'm using Sony Vaio VPCCW26FG (CW Series). It's graphic card is NVidia GeForce GT 330M. I use Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit as my operating system, dual boot with windows 7.

Upgrade from 11 to 12... 3 years 28 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.

Here we provide the download link for the latest driver for nVidia GeForce GTX590 VGA graphic card series. This is the nVidia GeForce GTX590 officially certified driver for Windows 7 32bit version 267.85.

I recently installed Ubuntu alongside with windows 8, but the problem is that the fan is constantly running and I believe the problem is that my nvidia card is always running.

My laptop has two graphic cards.
