Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
It said I needed to use the proprietary driver to get 3-D effects etc.
I accepted, choosing the "(current version) [Recommended].
It said it failed and that I should look at jockey.log.

Exactly the same for me. I am using Lucid Beta 2, Compaq P4 with a GeForce2 MX/MX 400 graphics card and was prompted to install NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 96), but it failed as above. Here are the contents of my /var/log/ jockey. log. (Sorry, it's a long file, and I don't know what is safe to leave out.)
