I just installed ubuntu 12.10, and everything is running great, except in the software center. I have a Nvidia GeForce GT 430, and whenever I go into the software center insted of seeing words there's just a black box. It will sometimes load correctly but everything will start flashing. Anyone know how to fix this?

I had the same problem (i am on a Nvidia Geforce 550GTX TI)

run each 1 of these in terminal

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

sudo apt-get update;

sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings;

this should fix the problem :) it worked for me anyways

Press CTRL+ALT+T simultaneously to enter terminal.

To uninstall Software Center:

  1. sudo apt-get remove software-center

  2. sudo apt-get autoremove software-center

To re-install Software Center:

  1. sudo apt-get update

  2. sudo apt-get install software-center
