Ubuntu running in Low Graphics mode
Could someone please help with this?
I am relatively new to Ubuntu and am running Ubuntu 8.1. My computer has an NVIDIA 6200 graphics card, and for the last few weeks I have been using the NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 177) as recommended in the "Hardware Drivers" section, with no problems at all, but suddenly today when booting the computer I got an error message that said:
"Ubuntu running in low graphics mode. The following error was encountered; you may need to update your configuration to solve this:
(EE) NVIDIA(o) failed to initialise the NVIDIA kernel module"
I don't know how to access the configuration mentioned in the error message, still less how to update it. I think that the error is possibly due to running Update Manager yesterday because that is the only thing that might have altered my computer. I noticed something about the display in one of the files that was downloaded but cannot remember what it was. If anyone can suggest what I should do, I would be very grateful
