If you don’t type the exact name of the driver, you’ll get this message: NVIDIA-Linux… could not be found and you should type again the code for installing the driver. You should get a message in the terminal console saying –> lightdm stopped/waitingĪnd now you can finally install the nvidia driver using a code similar to this one: sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64.run (for Ubuntu 64bit) If you are not using lightdm as your default display manager (DM), replace lightdm with your default display manager, which can be either kdm or gdm or whatever your display manager is. To stop your display manager or the X server, you can type in the console this code: sudo stop lightdm or sudo apt-get install nvidia-331Īdditionally run the Nvidia routine to generate a new nf gksudo nvidia-settings I did it through Synaptic Package Manager. Then reinstall the driver from Additional Drivers window. Then installing nvidia-current: sudo apt-get install nvdia-current You can also remove all references to nvidia kernels install via sudo apt-get remove nvidia* If you have been playing with NVIDIA graphics installs then deactivate the driver from the Additional Drivers window and then reactivate to reinstall.
