Bryce,

I have found a solution.  Using EnvyNG to do the install from a low
graphics environment works.  Now it is as close to a plug and play as I
have seen.  I am using 195 drivers as we speak. Can you post that as the
fix?  

Dary

Thank you for reporting this issue about xserver-xorg-video-nv. Starting
with Lucid, Ubuntu is transitioning to using the -nouveau video driver
by default instead of -nv. The reason for this change is because
upstream development for the -nv driver has been quite slow.  We are
quite pleased with the upstream development speed for -nouveau, and hope
this will translate into swifter bug fixes as well.

Because of this, I'm closing this bug report at this time. I'm marking
it wontfix because what you describe is probably a valid issue, but we
do not have further plans to work on it in Ubuntu. If you would still like
to see this issue investigated, I would encourage you to file it
upstream at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/.


** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix
