[Bug 1060757] Re: Nvidia driver removed on upgrade -> Unity won't work

[Walter Garcia-Fontes]

Thanks for having reported this bug and helping in making Ubuntu better
and sorry for having your report unanswered for so long.

 It seems that was caused the error you observed is described in the
following line of the file "main.log" that apport attached to the
report:

2012-10-02 20:03:12,094 DEBUG nvidiaUpdate()
2012-10-02 20:03:14,092 ERROR NvidiaDetection returned a error: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'experimental-304'

Do you remember if you had any special nvidia driver installed when you
did the upgrade or you were just using the ones provided by Ubuntu?

Title:
  Nvidia driver removed on upgrade -> Unity won't work

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I upgraded to 12.10 this morning, restarted the computer, logged-in,
  and then Unity launcher and the top-bar didn't show up.

  However, the desktop was ok and I could open guake. Because I noticed
  before the upgrade that nvidia-current was going to be removed I tried
  to reinstall it using apt-get and it fixed the problem.

  That might be also a problem in fglrx, which was the replacement, but
  as I have a Nvidia card it probably shouldn't be installed at all in
  first place.
