I rebooted, and my problem hasn't changed. Still nothing from the BIOS or grub. Nor could I get the BIOS to start by hitting the Del key (I tried for a minute or so).
I just noticed, though, that if I Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to a console window, that too is blank. Also during the reboot I had the Nvidia's VGA output plugged directly into the CRT, and the CRT switched to show the DVI input, but even so, I didn't get to see the boot messages on that either. I'll keep searching to see if I can work out what's wrong. luke -- Long delay with blank screen during boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563480 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
