    Nvidia Drivers in Latest Kernal Update

    The latest kernal update3.13.0.12 is having a problem with nvidia graphics drivers. Can't site the error specifically during upgrade but I think it was something about a compile error with the drivers.

    Long story short, Desktop does not have the resolution it had before this upgrade/update.

      I have a bit of an older system I'm running this on. It has a Nvidia GeForce 6600GT GPU. When I went into 'Additonal Drivers' the 331 driver was not listed.

        Here it is.

        If you are using a Linux 2.4 kernel, please make sure
        you either have configured kernel sources matching your
        kernel or the correct set of kernel headers installed
        on your system.
        
        If you are using a Linux 2.6 kernel, please make sure
        you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
        installed on your system. If you specified a separate
        output directory using either the "KBUILD_OUTPUT" or
        the "O" KBUILD parameter, make sure to specify this
        directory with the SYSOUT environment variable or with
        the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.
        
        Depending on where and how the kernel sources (or the
        kernel headers) were installed, you may need to specify
        their location with the SYSSRC environment variable or
        the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.
