| tgm4883 | krabador, did you try using jockey? | 01:18 |
| tgm4883 | the additional drivers thingy | 01:19 |
| tgm4883 | whatever it's called now | 01:19 |
| krabador | tgm4883, when i try to install the package as "sudo apt-get install nvidia-173" i've error "Depends: xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-12 v., but it is not installable | 01:21 |
| tgm4883 | I would normally recommend installing nvidia drivers via the "additional drivers" tab in "software sources" | 01:23 |
| krabador | tgm4883, yes, i tried too, but i've the same issue | 01:24 |
| krabador | tgm4883, i installed the official nvidia package, no problems with desktop environment 2d, but blank screen and pointer on unity and 3d desktop | 01:26 |
| tgm4883 | how did you get a 2d desktop on 12.10? | 01:26 |
| krabador | then i uninstalled the official nvidia package, and i tried to install nvidia-173 | 01:27 |
| krabador | tgm4883, gnome 2d | 01:27 |
| tgm4883 | krabador, hmm, I don't think I've got good news for you yet. It appears to be a bug that is in progress of being fixed | 01:31 |

| krabador | tgm4883, great... | 01:32 |
| krabador | :) | 01:32 |
| krabador | then ok, it seems i must wait the bug correction | 01:32 |
| krabador | tgm4883, what do you think about http://namakutux.blogspot.it/2012/11/solved-how-to-install-nvidia-173-on.html | 01:33 |
| tgm4883 | krabador, not sure I like installing a video card driver from 12.04 onto 12.10 | 01:35 |
| krabador | then, if the official nvidia package have " Added support for xserver ABI 13 (xorg-server 1.13)." | 01:37 |
| krabador | like http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/linux-display-ia32-173.14.36-driver-uk.html | 01:37 |
| krabador | i installed this package, but i had issues with unity | 01:38 |
| krabador | what can i set later the driver installation, to use properly 3d acceleration? | 01:39 |
| krabador | then thanx tgm4883 :) | 02:22 |
