X server problem with new Nvidia driver inatallation
I installed nvidia-glx-new drivers due to a version mismatch between restricted drivers(version 1.0-9755) and nvidia-glx drivers(1.0-9631)
After I did a sudo nvidia-xconfig, x server failed to start and i get the following error
"Failed to Load 'wfb' (module does not exist,0)
NVIDIA(0): need libwfb but wfbScreenInit not found"
