[Bug 467490] Re: nvidia drivers don't work

 

OK, I have done a little more digging into this.  It seems that the
problem lies in the /sbin/lrm-video script.

The script call modeprobe with a "-Q" option which is invalid.

if [ -e /etc/default/envy-dkms ]; then
      modprobe --ignore-install -Qb $@ $XORG
    else
      modprobe --ignore-install -Qb $@ $MODULE
    fi

Commenting out the line in /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video as far as I can
figure, tells modeprobe not to call the lrm-video script and just loads
the nvidia module into the kernel and all works.

As for the sound issue I think something must have gotten uninstalled
when I was installing the envyng-core package or something else.  I
installed the linux-backports-modules-* packages and something in one of
those got my sound working again.
