** Description changed: Binary package hint: linux-generic Distro : 8.10 // Intrepid x86_64 and x86_32 This bug concern also nvidia-glx-177, nvidia-glx-180 Hardware : * P5Q Mother Board * 4 Gio RAM * nVidia 9500GT >> "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 9500 GT (rev a1)" - * Proc Intel E2500 @2.5 GH + * Proc Intel E5200 @2.5 GH I installed the 64bits version of Ubuntu, it worked fine *before the last kernel update to 2.6.27-11. * After this update I was not able to use my desktop anymore with nVidia driver : the computer freezes (black screen) on X launch. Disk stopped, no ctrl-alt-backspace, no ctrl-alt-del, keyboard dead... I have to hard reset ! As I start with the recovery mode, I can set the driver as nv in Xorg.conf, the nvidia module seems to be launched (visible via lsmod). It works fine with nv driver. *I didn't see anything in dmesg.log, Xorg.0.log, kernel.org... * After that I decided to switch back to 32bit version, and I have the same result with the same kernel revision. It work fine with the "2.6.27-7-generic" 32bits version (I'm using it now, with compiz), but not with the 2.6.27-11... I've tried both 177 and 180 nvidia-glx driver, nvidia.run (180), envy didn't work. With 180 nvidia.run driver, I could see the nvidia splash screen, before the screen become black, or sometimes 'beige' (ubuntu default X back color), with mouse pointer. Pointer doesn't move, system is crashed. Thanks for your fantastic work for a fantastic Linux distro ! frague
