Ubuntu Crash nVidia

Problems with ubuntu installed 12.10 worked for a while then crashed, nothing on screen refused to boot.

Did fresh install from CD worked for a while upgraded drivers for nVidia crashed, needed reinstall. Card GTX 650 TI

found this: from here


After lots of messing around this is the ticket use uname -r to get correct headers

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.5.0-18-generic
sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

Notes: ctrl +alt +F7 returns to gui from command line.(ctrl+alt+F1)

xserver can be stopped with sudo stop lightdm at command, lightdm seems to have replaced gdm in 12.10
