Ubuntu 9.04 - Nvidia 9600GT

8 June 2009
After having problems installing the latest Ubuntu 9.04 with a 9600GT GPU I thought I would let you all know the the process that worked for me.

First download the 'Alternate install image of Ubuntu 9.04 from ubuntu.com

Burn the image and run through the Installation as normal.

After Ubuntu has been install and restarted, at the GRUB boot loader prompt press Esc and select:
 Ubuntu 9.04 , kernel 2.6.28-11-generic (recovey mode) 


Once it has loaded select:
netroot - Drop to a root shell prompt with networking


Now type:
apt-get update
apt-get install envyng-gtk


Now run envy by typing:
envyng -t
select:
1 - Install the NVIDIA driver
and then:
0 - 180.44-0ubuntu1


Envyng will now download the selected driver and install it.

You should be prompted with the success message:
 Success: Operation Completed 
To restart Select:
0 - Yes (recommended)


Ubuntu should now boot into the GUI.
