[Bug 208718] Re: nvidia-glx-new driver displays white screen of death

2008-06-25 Thread thedevnull
Same problem here..

I have Ubuntu 8.04 64bit on AMD 64X2 with the Nvidia 8800 GT (XFX) and
the Samsung SyncMaster 245bw.

When I first installed I loaded the proprietary Nvidia X.org drivers and
they worked flawlessly for all of 10ish reboots and then it stopped.

Randomly on the 10th reboot it started my machine in low graphics mode
and then gave me some blurred output that can't be read. I can see like
half the screen blurred and then the Ubuntu logo down beyond where I can
click on it. =( So I restarted in recovery mode and repaired X config.
There after I try to reconfigure as I had it before but it doesn't ever
load right. Even tried to remove the proprietary driver and re-download
and reconfigure it and it doesn't work.

I was able to restart and boot into safe mode and get it to work by
restoring a previous xorg.conf file but the results are irregular.  Its
broken several times before and always seems to come back as a problem.
Every once and awhile it just doesn't want to boot properly with the
proprietary driver and goes into a hissy with a illegible Low Graphics
mode.

Any progress on this?  Any ideas to keep it working?
