You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop on my Dell XPS 1330 (Nvidia 8400M GS).
The Live CD session works great and installation was no problem. But
after the first reboot I get the error message: "ubuntu is running in
low-graphics mode".

On the terminal I tried to install manually:
nvidia-173 nvidia-173-updates
or
nvidia-current nvidia-current-updates

But non of the two packages resolves my problem. So i tried to install the nvidia driver with "jockey-text".
$ jockey-text -c
$ jockey-text -u
$ jockey-text -a
$ jockey-text -C
Additional Drivers
Downloading and installing driver...

Sorry, installation of this driver failed.

Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log
$


For me it's not important to install the proprietary Nvidia driver. I just would like to use the system. If possible with the nouveau or with the nvidia driver
