Today I installed Ubuntu 13.04 by doing clean install but I could only see purple screen. Then I installed nvidia drivers using root, now I can see only background image and Unity is not loading. I think Compiz is not loading too since I have no window borders. How to fix this.

EDIT:

I ran nvidia-xconfig and got error: "Unable to write to directory /etc/x11". Also I ran unity --replace and got error: Can't launch openGl (something like that)

EDIT:

Downloaded image using torrent and then reinstalled Ubuntu, now it works, also during installation I checked option for downloading updated during installation.

    Ctrl+Alt+F1 login and type unity --replace and post what error do you get! – Stefano Mtangoo Apr 25 '13 at 22:12

  • That's not it, I think my problem are graphics card drivers. I already installed nvidia-current but is seems they are not activated, so how to activate drivers. When I ran command from above link I got error about openGl, it can't be loaded. And I have really low resolution with screen flickering. – Alen Apr 26 '13 at 07:35
  • I ran nvidia-xconfig and got error: "Unable to write to directory /etc/x11". Also I ran unity --replace and got error about openGl like before. So this question is different from link you posted, please do not close it. – Alen Apr 26 '13 at 16:40
  • @Alen You should put the updates in your question itself (that is, move them from comments). – belacqua Apr 26 '13 at 17:04
