Hi:
On a Hard Drive, I had 3 Partitions with, Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu Studio
(7.10), and Ubuntu 8.04. I had many Problems with Ubuntu 8.04 (32 Bit),
and I was not using Ubuntu Studio much. So I deleted the two Partitions
with Ubuntu Studio, and Ubuntu 8.04. Then I put Ubuntu Ultimate Edition
(7.10) in the new free space, created. It is working nicely; however,
Ubuntu 7.10 that I use all the time, now Boots up in Low Screen
Resolution. The Nvidia Drivers is enabled, but not is use, so there is
no Accelerated Graphics happening. There does not seem to be a way to
Get the Nvidia New Driver working. It's an Nvidia 5500. I tried to
Remove the Nvidia New Driver, then re-install it, however, it will not
let me do this even in Root, saying that Dpkg was interupted, and that I
need to run 'dpkg--configure -a' however this does not work either. In
add/remove it says that perhaps there might be two gconfigs, and that
'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable' might need to be run. this does not go
anywhere because the XML file for gconfig seems to be missing. The
second error that comes up says that the cache is open.
I might try to install the older Nvidia driver, so that the new Driver
would be removed, then try to install the new Driver again so that the
old driver is removed. Anyone know how to get my High Resolution back?
TIA
Alfred!
