I installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 9.04 (64 bit on a dual Xeon machine) using a GeForce VX 5200 card and driver. The Ubuntu packaged nvidia driver (not updated) worked fine. Then I installed a C870 card and installed the latest linux driver off your website without problems. However, when I try bring up Xwindows after this driver install it crashes. The debug file is attached here.

Thanks for your help.

The FX5200 isn’t supported by the driver that supports your C870, but the Geforce 6200 is…
