I've got a problem.

I've installed Raring Ringtail, and have done all the updates.

However, my hardware, Geforce 310M, is not detected and does not appear in additional drivers (software update).

I have tried to install the driver manually, I got the source from here, thanks for that. But my Ubuntu gave some errors, so I re-installed again.

Can somebody help me? Sorry for my bad English, also I'm absolutely newbie Ubuntu user.

result of lspci | grep VGA :

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218M [GeForce 310M] (rev a2)

Have you tried writing this on terminal?

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings

These commands apply on ubuntu versions 13.04, 12.10 & 12.04! Hope it covers you.

  • After 2nd command, it give result :
    'code' W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org raring Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783     – elhvdz Jul 29 '13 at 16:35
  • @elhvdz Try this fix :

    sudo apt-key adv –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys 2EBC26B60C5A2783

    Then type again the above commands in terminal that I gave you to install the drivers. The ppa I gave you is not outdated, so I assume it will work after this fix.

    Tell me if it is all ok now.

  • So the fix that I proposed failed after trying that? That should have worked, to be honest. The error still persists?

    sudo apt-key adv –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys 2EBC26B60C5A2783

    sudo apt-get update

  • Try this link as well, if mine does not work out. – Paul Jul 29 '13 at 17:54
  • i've done with do all that command, and I still have problem after install the driver. I decided to use Nvidia in future. Because I always failed in installing the driver. For starters, I just use the default vga – elhvdz Jul 31 '13 at 14:26
