    Honestly speaking i have no idea that for what you are getting this error but i think you mat try to enter following commands on your Karmic computer system.
    sudo apt-get remove --purge envyng-core envyng-qt
    sudo apt-get install envyng-core envyng-qt

    I think you have to download the latest version of an EnvyNg on your computer after which you would be away from this problem. Actually there could be some problem with your EnvyNg which results in showing you a different kind of errors. I think you should try installing an EnvyNg from its official web site.

    Re: EnvyNG problem in ubuntu Karmic

    I have the same error on my computer and i have tried it one more time. Here are the details provided as follows about what i have done on my computer. First of all i got logged out then pressed ctrl-alt-F1 to get to a virtual console.
    sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
    sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.12-pkg1.run
    used nano to edit xorg.con
    sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
    I can log in now without any problem but there are no nvidia proprietary driver. Then i have selected manual driver selection in an EnvyNG which has detected my kernel as 16 where as i am using kernel -17.

    First of all shut down the Xserver then uninstall the drivers from NVIDIA's official website as it can result in a serious problems regarding the updates. I have provided you the kernel independent solution which you may try.
    • Add these to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
    • deb http: //ppa launchpad net/lrm-envy-hardy/ubuntu hardy main
    • deb-src http: //ppa launchpad net/lrm-envy-hardy/ubuntu hardy main
    • Then type sudo apt-get update
    • sudo apt-get install dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r)
    • sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
