[Bug 873929] Re: X freezes after login on iMac8.1 after upgrade to oneiric

 

I did a quick attempt to use an older nvidia driver by modifying
/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphic-drivers.conf like so:

#blacklist nvidia-173
#alias nvidia nvidia_current
blacklist nvidia_current
alias nvidia nvidia-173 

But this did not work due to API version conflicts with the X driver:


[  310.056496] NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module  173.14.30  Sat Apr 16 21:49:29 PDT 2011
[  321.209685] NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 280.13, but
[  321.209686] NVRM: this kernel module has the version 173.14.30.  Please
[  321.209687] NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
[  321.209688] NVRM: components have the same version.
