Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't work with Nvidia GeForce GT 610

[Alan Robertson]

After getting no response on my previous complaint about xorg in 14.04 (and ATI/AMD dropping Linux support), I decided I needed to replace my video card. So, I got an nVidia GeForce GT610.

It doesn't work with the installed 14.04 system, and it doesn't work with the installer either. I've attached a picture from the installer. And I will attach a picture of the box that the video card came in - so you can see some details about it.

More pictures. This time of the video card box.

My previous 14.04 video complaint is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1336831

And, as before this is using the kubuntu 14.04 install DVD image.
