@VishwaPrakashHV That ppa is toxic

VishwaPrakash H V

I did this today morning

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa -y
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-352

Raphael

Yeah I interpreted

VishwaPrakash H V

I saw some tutorial on How to install Nvidia Driver and did that.

What should I do now ?

and could you please explain me what do you mean by toxic ppa?

Raphael

17:53

Aha! If you want the latest drivers, its always better to get the *.run file from the official websites.

That ppa is not needed at all

Do this:

VishwaPrakash H V

I have the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-352.63.run file But I dont know hoe to install it

yeah, tell me

why did you remove it??

Raphael

Accidentally

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

Yeah scroll down and disable xorg

Disable xorg

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

17:59

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

Don't type any commands now

Yup good!

Now do as I say

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

VishwaPrakash H V

Raphael

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo ppa-purge ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

Why can't it not get uninstalled? Frustrated

VishwaPrakash H V

Bad in what way?

Raphael

18:36

It just doesn't want to go

VishwaPrakash H V

yeah, I get this :

* Proprietary graphics drivers are now in https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

* WARNING: Do not use this PPA with the precise X backport stacks, aka if you fresh install of 12.04.2 or newer. You can switch back to a compatible one by installing xserver-xorg-lts-precise instead if you do want to use these packages but horrible things will happen if you don't.

Be sure to revert this PPA before doing a release upgrade or the upgrade will not succeed. To revert to official packages, install the ppa-purge package and run "sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers".

Raphael

Press y then Enter

VishwaPrakash H V

libgdm1: command not found
vishwa@vishwa-PC:~$

Raphael

That ppa aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

VishwaPrakash H V

shall I try completely removing nvidia and rebooting??

and follow that video ?

Raphael

It will crash your Ubutnu

You won't be able to reboot

VishwaPrakash H V

sure?

because I had done that once today. installed again using same method though

Raphael

18:58

If you did it once then you may try

VishwaPrakash H V

Is there any other way?

please dont say no

Raphael

Also, see if you can remove that hell of a ppa after uninstalling nvidia by running sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers. The other way is to keep your current drivers and install nvidia from the *.run file and then remove the ppa

Install from *.run on top of the current drivers

And would it be a problem if I am unable to reply immediately???

VishwaPrakash H V

No problem. But please reply tomorrow

Raphael

OK!

Proceed with the steps and reply, I will check your reply later OK

VishwaPrakash H V

and its 12:45 am here

Thanks a lot bro. bye for know
