Ok, I'm a total Linux noob. I was able to install 12.4 without issue, except that it says in the system settings that the graphics card/driver is 'unknown'.I have NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, and have not been able to get it installed. I've found the driver at NVIDIA but couldn't figure out how to actually install it. I found instructions that used apt-get to automatically find the current driver and install it, and that came close. At least then it showed up in the 3rd party drivers list.

It said it was installed but not being used? And I was unable to find out why that might be, or how to get the system to use itTwo questions:1. CAN/SHOULD my graphics card work with 12.4?2. If so, HOW?I'm running a 100% fresh install, so what's the step-by-step from there? Gonna answer my own question: NO YOU CAN'T INSTALL LEGACY NVIDIA DRIVER (173.14.XX) ONA 32bit INSTALL.

They're just not compatible with the new Xorg system. There are rumors of an update in the future, and if I understand correctly there may already be a 64bit one released. But for now, the only solution (not a solution, more like a compromise) is to downgrade Xorg.EDIT:They've now released an updated driver for 32bit systems, 173.14.35. You can grab it from the launchpad site. It installed easily, and so far I haven't run into any glitches!EDIT:For what it's worth, this fix covers a LOT of legacy nvidia products. From my personal experience, using 12.04 without the drivers causes it to freeze frequently when running more than one task at a time.If you've already run the apt-get method for the current driver by installing 'nvidia-current', you should be fine. The sims complete collection patch from hush.

You can confirm by typing in nvidia-settings into Terminal and launching that or by launching Additional Drivers from the Dash Home menu.If you haven't already installed 'nvidia-current', the instructions are as follows:Go into Terminal and enter: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updatesthen sudo apt-get updateand finally, sudo apt-get install nvidia-currentYou'll have to restart after this.Hope this helps. Almost there. Ran all the apt-get lines and rebooted. Now system details say 'VESA: NV34 Board - p162-11n' for Graphics.

But the additional drivers section says my Nvidia driver is activated but not in use. Running nvidia-settings successfully opens the settings window, but I get a warning: 'You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run nvidia-xconfig as root), and restart the X server.'
