I upgraded to Kubuntu 8.04 from 7.10 on two machines with NVIDIA. I deleted the xorg.conf and rebooted, still worked fine. Except that I was of course back in NV-drivers. So I used the restricted manager to enable the proprietary NVIDIA driver. It as said created a xorg.cong described here. After reboot I got an error message in really low resolution that I needed to install something like "GTK-display-config", I clicked ok and this error message was repeated. After that it fell back in console :( I removed xorg.conf in the console and the X started again. How I'm supposed to get this working by NOT hacking xorg by hand and not using ages old xorg.confs from previous releases?

I'm not going to install GTK-display-config, maybe QT-display-config? :)

Anyway, thanks for the fist successful upgrade ever!!! Previous upgrades on Kubuntu have always crashed on every machine I operate... And the new Kubuntu seems great in other perspectives too!
