So here I am and again with an error which i guess you all know how to fix in few seconds, but i can't:
Yesterday was forced to format my hdd (major hardware change etc etc), what means i had to reinstall linux. Ok. Did that. But the problems just started - following ubuntuguide manual, installed nvidia drivers with following commands:
apt-get install nvidia-glx
apt-get install nvidia-settings
nvidia-glx-config enable
and as needed, restarted X with ctrl+alt+backspace. After that Gnome just refuses to load - no messages, nothing suspicious, just black screen and system all the time loading something (well waited for about 2-3 minutes, but still nothing changed - keyboard and mouse weren't functioning). So I copied new (with glx) xorg.conf to default xorg.conf - all seemed to work fine.
Comparing both xorg device sections, only thing seemed to be changed was:
Driver "nv" (in the old one)
Driver "nvidia" (new one)
Here are full xorg config from old and new one:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
