Thread: Problem with nvidia graphics card


new ubuntu.

opened menu of programs open on startup. there 2 -- startup noise , nvidia settings. opened nvidia settings , said needed run nvidia xconfig in terminal , reset. ran in terminal, same message appeared every time opened nvidia settings.

when closed notebook on system didn't turn off , screen subsequently blank, ended having hold power button.

when turned on, ubuntu wouldn't run normally. dual boot, grub launch ubuntu 3.0.0-14-generic. launches screen saying modem manager various things , starts various things -- 1 of fails: 'automatic crash report generation'. can't here, when press power button (not holding it) continues 'checking running unattended upgrades' -- 'terminating programs' fails , computer shuts down.

starting in recovery mode able command line input.
