Comment 88 for bug 772207

Can confirm the same here on my System LinuxMint 11 Katya.

Graphic-card:

02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C79 [GeForce 9200M G] (rev b1)

I notice, that my grphiccard often overheats with nouveau-driver and I have to switch off my Notebook. And if I try to install nvidia-current, my jockey shows the message: nvidia-current activated but not in use. But this nouveau-driver is not solution for the future, because of melting graphiccard.

And what I also found out is, that nvidia-current-modaliases is a direct dependency of nvidia-current. But of nvidia-current-modaliases being a lower version than nvidia-current, these two packages conflickt with each other and this causes nvidia-current not to work in Ubuntu 11.04 as well as in LinuxMint 11 Katya
