I am experiencing the same problem. I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope (9.04) and running the latest nVidia 180.44 graphics drivers. Here are the requested pieces of information to reopen the bug.
<b>uname -a</b> http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/324709/Launchpad/Bug220951/uname-a.txt <b>dmesg</b> http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/324709/Launchpad/Bug220951/dmesg.txt <b>xorg.conf</b> http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/324709/Launchpad/Bug220951/xorg.conf <b>Xorg.0.log</b> http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/324709/Launchpad/Bug220951/Xorg.0.log.txt <b>lspci -vvnn</b> http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/324709/Launchpad/Bug220951/lspci-vvnn.txt <b>Not</b> a usplash problem. I modified my menu.lst to remove "splash" and "quiet" as advised and when booting without those options I was able to reproduce the problem. There is one thing I would like to mention about that though. When booting with "quiet" and "splash" options, when I try to reproduce the problem when I first hit CTRL+ALT+F1, the screen does absolutely nothing. Then I hit again and it goes to the terminal, but it is blank with nothing but a blinking cursor. When I remove the "quiet" and "splash" options, it goes to the terminal the first time I press CTRL+ALT+F1, but still just the blinking cursor If you need anything else, please let me know, I will happy to help. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Stefan Bader (stefan-bader-canonical) -- nvidia-glx-new causes unusable tty's https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
