        Did you restart ?
        What errors/warnings do you have in the Xorg.0.log ?


        When you repaired those X Error's
        Did you use kate ? - text editor kate backups: xorg.conf -> xorg.conf~

        Try to use backup, does it work ?

        what am i doing wrong
        Show the xorg.conf and the errors/warnings.

          since my OS is not a pure Kubuntu, I use
          Code:
          restricted-manager
          (gnome) to install drivers. It is really good.
          If you can type in the "black" screen, can you run
          Code:
          sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

              Do you have:

              /etc/X11/xorg.conf~
              If yes - try:
              Code:
              :~$ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf~ /etc/X11/xorg.conf
              Restart.

              If you don't have or it doesn't work
              Try:
              Code:
              :~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
              Restart.
              If this doesn't work try:
              Code:
              :~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "(EE)"
              and
              Code:
              :~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "(WW)"
              And tell us what it says.

              Before you edit, BACKUP !

                Well the first two didn't work, the first one didn't even do anything, I dunno why, it didn't even say not found or anything like that.

                Here is the error :

                xf860 pen serial : cannot open device /dev/input/wacom

                and here's the warning :
                3D driver claims to not support visual and then 0x some random letters.

                  i just wanted to install the graphics driver for kubuntu
                  How and what did you install ?


                  You could try vesa driver.
                  VESA display driver
                  This driver for the X.Org X server (see xserver-xorg for a further description)
                  uses the standard VESA interface provided on all video cards, but runs
                  unaccelerated. This driver is not recommended for use unless you have a
                  problem with the normal driver for your card, because it will peform very
                  badly.
                  In xorg.conf:
                  Code:
                  Section "Device"
                  
                  	Driver		"vesa"
                  Or
                  Code:
                  :~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
                  and chose vesa when it asks driver. To other options use autodetect, simple and defaults.
