I am one among many who seem to be having many problems with the current nVidia drivers found in the additional drivers dialog.

These issues include

  1. Blue youtube videos

  2. A message saying "Ubuntu has experienced an internal error"

  3. Missing or wrong resolutions

  4. nvidia-settings forgets my configuration on boot

  5. Choppy video playback

The list goes on. Is there a simple fix for all of these as they are related to the same driver?

Well the answer is yes there is one simple fix for all of this just add the X-swat PPA and update your driver, mine went from version 2.9 to 3.1 I think so a good jump, and all these errors just went away.

Open a terminal and add the PPA

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates

Then update the repos

sudo apt-get update

And finally update the drivers

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Now reboot, and when you log back in you will have a working, up to date nvidia driver in Ubuntu ;)

Hope this helps someone....
