Ok,
This is driving me CRAZY. For whatever reason this machine that I have installed Mythbuntu 8.04.1 on to is shutting itself down, kind of. The screen goes blank, and it looses its IP (can no longer ping it) or ssh to it. I can only reboot it by holding in the power and starting it back up.
When I look at syslog I see this
modprobe: WARNING: Error running install command for nvidia
This is displayed in two consecutive lines. The next line is my machine booting up again.
The problem is, that I am not trying to install nvidia drivers, I don't have an nvidia card, (its the integrated intel) and I am not trying to do anything like that when it crashes. In fact, I am generally sitting back trying to watch a video when this happens (off a network drive, not a tv card, or DVD)
This appears to be a fatal error, but I cannot figure out what is causing it.
Someone PLEASE help, its driving me batty and is basically rendering this machine useless. I have two other ubuntu machines that give me no issues... well... not this one anyway
I can't tell for certain but it almost looks like (when I look at a verbose boot up like everything is getting run twice...
Maybe its always like that, but I never noticed. Also, the boot ups are inconsistent. Sometimes it starts by loading restricted drivers, other times it skips it altogether... as if it were loading a different drive (there is only one drive in the pc)
