[Bug 469470] Re: proprietary nvidia driver does not work under karmic

 

I started experiencing something similar today after enabling Karmic
proposed repositories and performing an upgrade.  The upgrade pulled in
updates for xserver.  The updates seem to be related to the failsafe
server.  Reverting to the Karmic released versions of the xserver
packages resolves the problem for me.

I run Kubuntu and use kdm for my login manager.  I also have Ubuntu
desktop installed and sometimes use the gnome desktop but not gdm.
However, gdm is installed.

It almost looks like the failsafe server is attempting to startup and
creating a conflict with kdm.  If I cancel the low resolution mode
dialog quickly enough, kdm is able to startup and everything is ok.
I've attached my kdm log which shows the conflict with accessing the
display.
