I've recently upgraded my kernel, and as a result I've had to reinstall my NVidia driver. However, it seems I've lost my accelerated graphics as the installer is confused as to what directory to look in for libGL.so.1.
Code:
...
-> Uninstalling NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for Linux-x86 (1.0-7174):
-> done.
-> Uninstallation of existing driver: NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for
Linux-x86 (1.0-7174) is complete.
-> Installing 'NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for Linux-x86' (1.0-7174):
executing: './usr/src/nv/makedevices.sh'...

/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/local/lib/libGLw.so.1 is not a symbolic link
/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/local/lib/libGLU.so.1 is not a symbolic link

-> done.
-> Driver file installation is complete.
-> Running post-install sanity check:

-> Post-install sanity check passed.
-> Shared memory test passed.
-> Running runtime sanity check:
ERROR: The runtime configuration check failed for library 'libGL.so.1.0.7174'
(expected: '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1', found: '/usr/local/lib/libGL.so.1').
The most likely reason for this is that conflicting OpenGL libraries are
installed in a location not inspected by nvidia-installer. Please be
sure you have uninstalled any third-party OpenGL and third-party
graphics driver packages.
-> done.
-> Runtime sanity check failed.
ERROR: Installation has failed. Please see the file
'/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details. You may find suggestions
on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
So, instead of looking in /usr/lib, it's taking the entry for /usr/local/lib (which I don't know what package it belongs to). So does anyone have any ideas as to how to point the installer back in the right direction?
