Bug Description
Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-new
I have Nvidia GeForce FX5200 card.
When i install restricted drivers (nvida-glx-new) or drivers from nvidia site my monitor turns off on next reboot.
I discovered that the drivers misspelled one word while creating new xorg.conf.
They are writing:
Defaultdepth 24
instead of:
DefaultDepth 24
That one letter is the bug.
I found this bug on Gutsy and Hardy Alpha.
UPDATE:
I reinstalled my drivers and discovered that misspelled word isn't a problem.
Now I don't know how to fix it :(
When my drivers are installed monitor just turns off on while ubuntu is booting.
I don't know why it worked last time when I changed "Defaultdepth" but now it doesn't help.
UPDATE:
Reinstalled Ubuntu and now it works with restricted (nvidia-glx-new) drivers.
Problem is probably with drivers from nvidia site.
When I install them everything goes down (even restricted drivers don't work anymore).

How did you create the new xorg.conf? Did you use the driver manager (jockey)?
