Public bug reported: With an Nvidia 8800GTS (2.1.1, 100.14.19), both Gutsy and Hardy (beta) display a blank screen after starting the system. The graphical splash screen does not appear. The Gnome login screen also never appears, the monitor (NEC 225WXM, 22") simply goes into idle mode after a few minutes. Removing the boot options "splash" and "quiet" allows to boot up the system. It is a Ubuntu specific trouble as other mainstream distros don't show this behaviour on the same machine. (I thought there was a bug report on this issue, but could not find it. If I missed it, please merge this report.)
