Thread: X does not start after nvidia-xconfig


hi folks.

installed ubuntu karmic koala (9.10) on dell p470
graphic card: nvicia model p231

performed: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185
xorg-settings refuses until have new driver , running,

sudo nvidia-xconfig
whick makes me xorg.conf file.

after reboot, splash screen , ...
nothing flickering cursor on left top of screen.

booting in safe mode , deleting xorg.conf makes bootable again,
leaves me started, without nvidia driver loaded.

made no changes generated file
xorg.conf dump:
