Affects me as well (X42JV-X1), affects Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 and derived distros (Mint 8/9 Kubuntu, etc). nouveau will not use nVidia 335M. It is loaded, but only the integrated intel chip is used. Black screen occurs when telling X to use nouveau or nvidia device drivers (from restricted repos or downloading from nVidia and compiling). Cannot change to console or boot into safe mode. Disabling glx / intel drivers does not solve the problem. I'm not entirely sure if rendering a laptop unusable should be a low priority bug.

I suspect it's not so much a BIOS issue, though it's possible that disabling the Intel GPU at the hardware level might help. -- Nvidia restricted driver, black screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598368 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.35-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low [ Alberto Milone ] * debian/nvidia-current-dev*: - Make the dev package conflict with other dev packages which provide nvidia-dev so as to make it possible to install headers directly in /usr/include. * Adapt the packaging scripts to the new NVIDIA installers. * New upstream release: - Fixed a 3D Vision Stereo bug that caused the stereo glasses to not toggle when the flat panel was not running at its native mode timings. - Fixed a bug which prevented use of high performance PowerMizer levels on systems with certain ACPI configurations. - Fixed a bug that caused non-primary Fermi GPUs to fail to initialize framebuffer memory. This caused a variety of symptoms, up to and including system hangs. - Added unofficial GLX protocol support (i.e., for GLX indirect rendering) for the following OpenGL extensions: o GL_ARB_blend_func_extended o GL_ARB_draw_buffers_blend o GL_ARB_sample_shading o GL_ARB_timer_query o GL_EXT_draw_buffers2 o GL_EXT_separate_shader_objects o GL_NV_explicit_multisample o GL_NV_transform_feedback - Fixed an interaction problem between Compiz and 'screen-scraping' VNC servers like x11vnc and vino that caused the screen to stop updating (LP: #353126). - Enhanced VDPAU to add basic support for Xinerama. VDPAU will now operate on a single physical X screen under Xinerama. See the README for more details. - Enhanced VDPAU's handling of corrupt clips of all formats on GPUs with VDPAU feature set C to be at least as good as on GPUs with VDPAU feature set B. This significantly improves various clips provided by nvnews.net user eamiller. - Fixed a bug in Xv attribute handling that caused hue, saturation, brightness and contrast values to be misapplied when using an Xv overlay adaptor. - Fixed a bug in the XvMC driver that prevented it from working on systems with AGP graphics cards. - Enhanced VDPAU to clear all VdpVideoSurfaces to black when allocated. This provides more consistent results when using a surface as a reference when no prior decode operation has written to that surface. In turn, this improves the results of decoding some corrupt streams, such as p_only_no_play from ffmpeg bug 1124. - Implemented new APIs to allow sharing VDPAU surfaces with OpenGL andCUDA. The OpenGL extension is GL_NV_vdpau_interop. For CUDA, please see the documentation in the CUDA toolkit for details. - Worked around a bug where the combination of a GPU with VDPAU feature set A together with specific motherboard chipsets could cause visible corruption when decoding some MPEG-2 streams. - Fixed a bug that prevented the VDPAU overlay-based presentation queue from being used more than a few hundred times per X server invocation. - Renamed the driver file libGLcore.so.VERSION to libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, as a small step towards reducing the filename collisions between NVIDIA's and MESA's OpenGL implementations.This driver file is used by NVIDIA's libGL.so and libglx.so, and should never be used directly by applications. - Changed the SONAME of libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, libnvidia-tls.so.VERSION, and libnvidia-compiler.so.VERSION to be .so.VERSION, rather than .so.1. These driver files are only used by other NVIDIA driver components, and are only intended to be usedby components of the matching NVIDIA driver version. - Removed the -pkg# suffix from the NVIDIA Linux .run files. The packages are now simply named NVIDIA-Linux-ARCH-VERSION.run. On Linux-x86_64, a package which omits the 32-bit compatibility libraries is also available: NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-VERSION-no-compat32.run - Compressed the nvidia-settings, nvidia-installer and nvidia-xconfig tarballs with bzip2, rather than gzip. [ Johan Kiviniemi ] * debian/nvidia_supported: - nVidia changed the driver blob so that the old heuristic for finding the symbol with the PCI ID list failed. Implement a new heuristic by finding the symbol that matches the ID list in README closely enough. (README is missing a great number of IDs, which is why we need to grab the list from the blob in the first place). -- Alberto Milone alberto.mil...@canonical.com Mon, 28 Jun 2010 11:22:03 + ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: New = Fix Released -- Nvidia restricted driver, black screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598368 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post
