[Bug 1069133] Re: Get upgrade error 12.04 - 12.10 "Could not determine upgrade"

[melchiaros]

Q:However, I don't know what the PPA for the 'official' Xorg is - is it
within the normal Ubuntu PPAs?

A:You do not need a ppa for the official xorg it is just in precise
main.


Q:I've disabled the edgers one and tried to reinstall x but still not having much success.

A:You can try first to install the components from terminal,
unfortunally I could not find nvidia specific, I have only ati/amd for
know, but the principle components must be similiar(have a internet
search please for nvidia):

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core


Remove first the ppa from sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list),

when you do manually you need

gksu nautilus
