NVidia driver fails to initialize after X restart
This is mainly a note to myself. Sometimes when the X server is restart it complains that nvidia driver couldn’t be initialized and that no screens were found. This may be a result of a version mismatch between X11′s and the kernel’s nvidia module. The solution is to
modprobe -r nvidia |
before restarting the X server.
modbrobe?!?!
Don’t you mean ‘modprobe’?
