Bug Description
Ubuntu Version: Hardy Heron.
The linux-rt kernel (specifically 2.6.24-21-rt) refuses to work with the nvidia driver. Before the login screen appears, the screen flickers and then presents me with a low-graphics mode at 800x600 and gives me a window to choose my monitor and video driver. My (working) driver in the generic version is nvidia. When I choose nvidia and do a test, the screen blacks out for a few seconds, and then comes back to tell me the test failed and I should select another driver. Not even the nv driver works. The last realtime kernel that worked correctly with regard to the nvidia driver was the 2.6.24-16-rt kernel, and I have to keep that old kernel around.
I am running Gnome with compiz. Maybe this is the same or similar issue to https:/
@Philip,
Could you post the output of the 'dpkg -l | grep linux-restricte d-modules' ?
Thanks!
