[Bug 416979] Re: grub boot does not update to recognize nvidia proprietary driver
I re-installed Karmic Alpha 4 with updates after formatting to FAT32, then to ext4 and Grub 2. I haven't had any reoccurrence of the bug. All programs previously installed were restored from my-packages. There is still no splash on boot or shutdown - just a black screen until login. As the bug affects other users; 416979 and possibly 414034, I am not marking this bug as invalid yet. ** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- grub boot does not update to recognize nvidia proprietary driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416979 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

Disabling the nvidia driver leaves me with a 640x480 resolution. There needs to be a fix in the nvidia driver. Perhaps the bug is restricted to certain makes and models of monitors. I have had on and off issues since Hardy with my Acer AL1715. -- grub boot does not update to recognize nvidia proprietary driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416979 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

These are the last lines before the boot stops. I didn't see any other boot failures other than virtual box, which has always shown as 'fail' 'user'-desktop login: * Stopping NTP server ntpd * Starting NTP server ntpd Other than the shell root, I have no access to Karmic at all. -- grub boot does not update to recognize nvidia proprietary driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416979 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

To enable a temporary work-around, disable the nvidia driver as follows: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf comment out the line that reads something like driver = nvidia -- grub boot does not update to recognize nvidia proprietary driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416979 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
