Public bug reported:
When you upgrade to the Nvidia Accelerated Graphics drivers v180. Upon
reboot you will hear the startup tone but the screen is blank. When I
move the mouse around or play with key combinations I still see my HDD
light come on so I know everything is fine except for a black screen.
I use a Nvidia GeForce 7150M with 256MB of memory and a Nvidia nForce
630M GPU. The theme I use is called GlassyBleu.
I run Ubuntu 8.10 32-Bit, I installed it using a CD i ordered from
Canonical about 4 months ago.
The way I fixed the problem was by uninstalling the drivers using the
shell command in recovery mode, I booted into Ubuntu, reinstalled the
v177.82 drivers, upon reboot everything was fine and I was able to
resume everything as if nothing happened.
