[14:51] <ath88> Hi there. I am looking into an issue regarding installing Ubuntu on a desktop with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 580 graphics card. I found a solution using the alternative installer for 12.04, but now i would like to find a solution without using the alternative installer. The solution consisted of chroot'ing /target and then installing the graphics driver with apt-get. How would i chroot using ubiquity? Is it somehow possible to pau
[14:53] <xnox> ath88: was that message cut off? ended with "Is it somehow possible to pau"
[14:54] <ath88> Really? Must be my client messing things up. The last sentence was: 'Is it somehow possible to pause the installation at the right time?'
[14:55] <xnox> ath88: are you installing manually or automatically preseeding?
[14:57] <xnox> ath88: if you boot, choose "tru ubuntu" then launch the installer, at the end of installation you can continue using live session, chroot into /target and make any changes you need.
[14:57] <ath88> xnox: I did try that, but /target is empty after the installation.
[14:58] <xnox> ath88: with automatic preseeding there is ubiquity success_command, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbiquityAutomation
[14:58] <xnox> ath88: also if you are installing with network connectivity, you can check the box to install third party software and the correct drivers should be automatically installed.
[14:58] <xnox> for you graphics card.
[14:58] <xnox> it's a bug, if they don't.
[15:00] <ath88> xnox: The installer doesn't install the driver. The problem is further specified here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/203333/12-10-unable-to-install-or-even-run-from-live-cd-with-nvidia-gtx-580
[15:01] <xnox> ath88: there is a bug with 12.10 released media, where nvidia graphics driver doesn't not install correctly.
[15:02] <xnox> ath88: instead use precise .2 images or raring or saucy.
[15:02] <xnox> ath88: to enable nvidia driver installation one must check the box to install 3rd party software.
[15:02] <xnox> ath88: on the prepare screen.
[15:09] <ath88> xnox: I see, thanks. Ill see what i can make work.
