Error Loading Nvidia Drivers with Xorg and Unity
Unity won't load and I can't get my system to use Nvidia Drivers so that it might load. Everytime I use jockey there is an error when I try to activate the drivers. When I try to get Xorg to use the drivers it says that the XConfig file doesn't exist.
