A lot of times when nvidia users use the restricted drivers they get a message after rebooting stating that Ubuntu has been launched using low graphics mode. This has really frustrated many users that they gave up hope on Ubuntu. I recently installed Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and when I activated my drivers, I got that annoying message. Luckily, I found a bitter-sweet solution for it.
- Boot up Ubuntu
- Open the terminal
- Type in sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
- Reboot Ubuntu
it does not work.
