[Bug 1429449] Re: geforce 840m graphics card not recognized

 

jfcgauss, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us the earliest
driver version that supports your card is 337.12. As per
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia the release
of Ubuntu that would provide the appropriate driver is Vivid.

Hence, could you please test http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-
live/current/ and advise to the results?
