[Bug 1460487] Re: unknown

 

There was a recent comment from the bug reporter in bug #948053

"i wanna have the nvidia-173 cause i can't have a good resolution
whithout"

If the display hardware is

GraphicsCard:
  NVIDIA Corporation G72 [GeForce 7500 LE] [10de:01dd] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

as shown in this bug report, then the nvidia-graphics-
drivers-304-updates package should contain the correct driver.

As far as I know there is no working 173 driver available for Ubuntu
12.04.3 and up, but the  GeForce 7500 LE hardware should be well
supported by the 304 driver. see
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/304.125/README/supportedchips.html

Try installing the package nvidia-304-updates
