[Bug 1268257] Re: nvidia-331-updates 331.38-0ubuntu3: nvidia-331-updates kernel module failed to build, with only error: "objdump: '... .tmp_nv.o': No such file"

 

I think I destroyed my installation by doing following:

1) Switch with CTRL + ALT + F1
2) sudo service lightdm stop
3) Tried to reinstall nvidia-331. Needed to kill a process before doing that
4) After that the reinstall was successfull
5) After rebooting my desktop was not accessable anymore. I switched to terminal and I have seen the following error: "Could not find module by name "nvidia_331"
6) Than I have removed nvidia-331
7) After rebooting I have activated an older nvidia driver 304
8)...

Currently I can login but no toolbar is shown. No window borders are
shown....  Just my desktop background with my shortcuts...

How can I fix that ? :D

Thanks
Ferhat
