[Bug 380722] Re: GeForce 8800 GTS was not auto-detected

 

Hi Bryce, I have just reinstalled Jaunty. Here is what is installed by
default:

$ dpkg -l "*nvidia*"
ii  nvidia-173-modaliases         173.14.16-0ubuntu1
ii  nvidia-180-modaliases         180.44-0ubuntu1
ii  nvidia-71-modaliases          71.86.08-0ubuntu1
ii  nvidia-96-modaliases          96.43.10-0ubuntu1
ii  nvidia-common                 0.2.11
un  nvidia-glx                    <none>

As you can see, the modaliases packages are installed. However, the
Hardware Drivers dialog is empty. I would expect an NVidia selection
there. From my memory, as soon as I install nvidia-glx, NVidia would
show up - but at that point it's already too late.

I'd like to give you the chance to collect any debug information you
need. Could you give detailed instructions for what you want me to do?
If you want me to install from the edgers repo, could you list all
binary packages I should install from there?
