Hi. I might get a faster response this way. I would be willing to test
your nvidia-graphics-drivers-180, but I am unsure of how to install
it. I added the sources to software sources, but am unsure of what to
do next. Thanks for your help. I am on jaunty by the way.

The first several times, however, I had no clue that it did, as all I see is a white screen instead of my gdm, where I type the username and password blind to return to a functioning desktop.
