Comment 4 for bug 858723

I installed a fresh distribution of LinuxMint 9 (Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid) in an Asus A7V8X-X running an Nvidia video card. After install, before updates, I installed the correct driver per jockey. Up to this point no errors were displayed on boot; I would get the 5 green alternating dots with no verbage displayed as it loaded prior to the desktop. I thought I would run "Startup Manager" to display a normal resolution on the the splash screen. Ever since I ran StartupMgr I get 4 progressive green dots and the cursive "LinuxMint 9" displayed above the dots followed by four errors:

codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000]

Installing all available levels 1,2, & 3 updates, it still didn't go away. It doesn't seem to affect the running of LM9 (Isadora/Lucid) however it is a pain in the ass to look at. After running DMESG in terminal; it states the kernal is tainted. I can run "apport-collect 858723" if you wish.

Any Ideas? -redkestral
