ThinkPad T61 laptop graphics is NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140 M (G86GL) at PCI: 1: 0: 0 (GPU-0)

The driver in the standard Ubuntu 7.10 cannot be installed, so a new driver, beta version, is downloaded, but cannot be installed. After the failure, failsafe XServer is always started, very depressing.

This time, the new beta version of the driver is released, but the next one is still unavailable. However, the restricted driver kernel and driver manager are all removed from nvidia, and failsafe Xserver is removed from/etc/TPD. conf.

The installation was successful, and it was amazing. (To install the tool on the pure console, you must use the root permission and install the compilation tool in advance)

Nvidia can be installed without a limited driver.
