2011-11-22 20:59:13 Bryce Harrington description Fresh install of Precise on an Intel box that had oneiric installed previously. I left '3rd party sources' checked, completed the install, rebooted, and found myself at the console rather than in a graphical session. Logging into the console and poking around, it appears dkms failed to build the nvidia drivers for some reason. I rebooted in case it was just a race condition, but got the same failure, then filed this bug report from the console.
