Unit Desktop crashes under 13.04 after installing nvidia-current

Asked by Dov Kruger

I tried to install nvidia-current and Unity stopped working. I have found that this is an old problem which begs the question, why doesn't canonical do something about it, at least warn users that installing this package might destroy the window manager?

Some people suggested:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

but the file is not there.

After removing the package using instructions from an earlier question on Unity under Ubuntu 12:

Hi ,

please open a terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and execute bellow commands with order (one at time, copy-paste from here if you want)

sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-*
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo apt-get install nvidia-common ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

After rebooting, I still have no Unity desktop.

At this point, I'm disgusted enough to be willing to switch desktop managers. Is there something I can do to install any other desktop manager while I'm trying to get back Unity?

Is there anyone at Canonical who can be alerted since this has obviously been an issue for years?

If Unity desktop is not working either on Nvidia driver or nouveau (open source pre-installed) , then something else is wrong here.

Can you provide some additional info ?

    lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 vga

As an alternative desktop you can use lxde. Install lubuntu-desktop package. Is light - small and easy to install.

    sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop

select lubuntu-desktop (or LXDE) on Login Screen and see if you can login.

Do you remember if you "played" with compizconfig-settings-manager ?

Also some logs might help us

    cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
    sudo cat /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log

Thanks a lot for this, it's been really nasty being without a window manager, forced to boot into .... Windoze!

Ok, my apologies I don't know how to attach files here. I'm pasting the files in here as best as I can. If this isn't good enough, tel me how to attach files?

I installed lubuntu desktop but haven't rebooted yet so will add that afterward.

Here is lspci output, but done after

You have 2 graphic cards. Intel & Nvidia (hybrid).

You can try bumblebee project and see if problem fixed.

Still having a problem. With Lubuntu I have the windows moving arounf ok, but I need to get OpenGL working again.

When I run my code (that worked with Mesa) this is the error:
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".
freeglut (./DovShapeDemo): OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display ':0'
