X crashes on boot.
Alright. I'm trying out Ubuntu feisty and I'm getting things set up and such. I try getting and enabling a driver for my nvidia geforce 6600GT.
i think i used sudo to get it.
(i.e., sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx)
and then I enabled it and restarted, only to have X crash on me leaving me with my limited skills with the terminal =X
basically. I just need to know how to undo all that so that I can just use the Envy script that i just now found and get things rollin.
any other advice would be nice ^_^
(and sorry, im sure this has been asked before but im lacking time since the library im in closes at midnight. D=)
here's some stuff I jotted down.
(==) log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", time: Sun Sep 30 22:52:57 2007
(==) Using config file: "etc/X11/xorg.conf"
(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) No drivers available.
The first time it crashed i tried removing the nvidia driver, so that's why it's not finding it. So I imagine my problem now lies in my xorg.conf file?
so yeah, there's a wall of text for yah and any help would be MUCH appreciated. Sorry again if this is a common question that gets answered a lot.
