[Bug 643895] Re: nvidia propietary driver fails to load X with geforce 310M

 

Thanks Yorik and Philip.

Finally it worked. First I tried to uninstall nvidia drivers as Philip
said by executing the installer with the option --uninstall. After this
I reeboted my machine and the desktop had some weird behavior such as
not top bar (minimize, maximize and so on) on the windows or alt+tab
didn't worked. So I had to reinstall the nvidia drivers to recover my
dekstop.

After read Yorik post I tried by first uninstalling libgl1-mesa-dri and
libgl1-mesa-glx. Then I uninstalled nvidia drivers using the installer
and rebooted my machine. I started again and stopped the gnome dekstop
using an non graphical environment (CTRL + ALT + F1) with sudo service
gdm stop. So, installed libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-glx with sudo
apt.get install libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx, rebooted again and it
worked!!

Now I can start Stellarium :-)

Thanks in advance.

By the way, I had no idea of the libgl1-mesa* existence ;-).
