Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Hi,

I got the same error: Sorry, the installation of the driver failed. Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log on Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2. More details such as jockey log file and some screen shots you can find in my bug report #560074, which I marked as duplicate of this bug.

Thanks

it seems, that inspite of the error message during the installation the nvidia driver works on my PC. At least NVIDIA X Server Settings program says I use NVIDIA driver version 195.36.15. BUT Hardware Drivers writes "a different version of this driver is in use". After pressing the Activate button I got the same error message: Sorry, the installation of this driver failed. Please have a look at the log file for details.: /var/log/jockey.log. See screen shot.
