Subject: Ubuntu 9.04 Run Level
I have been trying to edit my "inittab" file in /etc so I can boot to run
level 3 and install the nvidia driver on my XPS M1730 but even with hidden
files showing I can't find it?!?!%#$!
Grrrrr :-(
I tried going to System > Administration > Hardware drivers and while it
shows me the driver 1.73 and 1.80 each time I try to enable them I get and
error that displays just a red dot with a white line and no text.
I have the shell installer for the latest driver and just want to run it
that way outside of X to fix this. Oh and CTRL+ALT+F3 to get to a TTY and
trying to SU my way to root fails because the shell notices X is not
actually closed.
Help
