For 3.11 on 12.04, I used the following two patches:

I've expirenced similar problem in Precise with Saucy kernel and Nvidia 304 driver. Will install latest Nvidia driver (319 in my case) and will report.

[Budo Zindovic (bzindovic)]

The build for Nvidia driver 319 was not successfull in Precise 64bit.

[Robert Finley (finley-rob)]

I have since discovered that if I install the driver before upgrading
the system, everything runs smooth.

I'm confused. I just got this error while trying to installing linux-generic-lts-saucy on my 12.04.3 machine. The build for both nvidia-304 and nvidia-319 failed:

nvidia-304 304.88-0ubuntu0.0.3: nvidia-304 kernel module failed to build
nvidia-319 319.32-0ubuntu0.0.1: nvidia-319 kernel module failed to build

While I understand the build failing for nvidia-304 (which has status 'Triaged'), I don't see why it would fail for nvidia-319 (which has status 'Fix Released').

I wonder if either:

1. The bug was fixed for nvidia-319-updates instead but nvidia-319 was mistakenly tagged 'Fix Released'
2. The bug has actually not been fixed in nvidia-319
3. I'm experiencing a different bug

I will install nvidia-304-updates and nvidia-319-updates to see if that fixes anything (I expect it will only work on 304-updates), anything else I can try?

[Ivan Frederiks (idfred)]

@ Matthijs ten Kate
AFAIK fixed nvidia-319 packages are still in 'proposed' repository.

[robin daniels (a-different-name)]

After i upgraded and got the black screen and all that...i discovered a way to get my system working again.

I just hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a text console, and used apt-get from there to remove the nvidia drivers (*all* of them), then installed `nvidia-current`. After rebooting, everything was back to normal.

[Budo Zindovic (bzindovic)]

After updating to latest Nvidia driver, Saucy HWE Stack works in Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

Just updated to 14.04 w/ 3.13.0-36, having this problem installing nvidia driver 304.88 for my 7950 GT card.

Seems to be fixed for everyone since a while
