blank screen after installing nvidia 96 driver
Good day, After I activate the Nvidia driver 96 and reboot, all I get is a blank screen. I can boot to the error that tells me I'm running in low graphics mode using the "nomodeset" at the grub screen.
I receive the error "Running in low graphics mode" "Failed to load nvidia kernel, screens found but, none have a usable configuration"
I have edited the x-config to read with the option"
When I do get into Ubuntu desktop and run the Nvidia x-server settings, it is giving the error "you do not appear to be using the nvidia x driver please edit x conf file" so I did that, and got an error the first time "validation error data incompletein file xorg.conf. Undefined device "(null)" referenced by screen "default screen"
Have looked and tried stuff online with the same results. Hope you can help.
Running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Nvidia geforce 440go video card
Dell Latitude c840 Laptop
Thanks!
