I am not sure about the right Way in Ubuntu, but i am on Debian and i install my Nvidia Driver from the Nvidia Homepage. Therfore you should get a self baked Kernel with ith Headers. For Example,
The compiled Image and Header Package File will be created in the dir /usr/src
Warning !!! Be sure to disable the nv Module in the Kernel, before you compile it!!!
Then you install the Header und Image with
apt-get install
Then you boot your new Kernel and install the Nvidia Driver.
This should work for all Linux Distris!
bye
Code: Select all
make-kpkg --append-to-version="-07092802" --revision=".rc8" kernel_image kernel_headers
# Use the --append-to-version option to add the Date for example
# Use the --revision Option as additional Counter
Warning !!! Be sure to disable the nv Module in the Kernel, before you compile it!!!
Then you install the Header und Image with
apt-get install
Then you boot your new Kernel and install the Nvidia Driver.
