Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770559] Re: Ubuntu fails to boot with nVidia proprietary driver
The bug is still there in Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot. I installed the new release a few days ago and experienced the same problems with the nVidia chipset/driver. The suggested solution ( http://www.warp1337.com/content/ubuntu-1104-natty-segmentation-fault- nvidia-geforce-9-series-kernel-failure-solved) does not solve this issue. 2011/7/21 Rasmus Nielsen 770...@bugs.launchpad.net I also have this problem.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770559] Re: Ubuntu fails to boot with nVidia proprietary driver
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected kubuntu natty patch ** Description changed: After installing the proprietary nvidia driver in Ubuntu Natty (32bit and 64bit tested) and rebooting, the system freezes before reaching the login screen. The system can boot fine using the nouveau package, but as soon as nvidia-current is installed the system crashes. Trying to switch to a tty doesn't work, the only way to reboot after this is to use the magic sysrq combination, and then boot into text mode to remove the nvidia-current driver.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770559] Re: Ubuntu fails to boot with nVidia proprietary driver
I was unable to get any kernel logs directly from the machine, but I was advised by someone to use netconsole to get the Kernel Oops and I am attaching it here. In line 26 you can see the Oops occur after the nvidia driver is loaded. I hope this helps uncover the problem.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770559] Re: Ubuntu fails to boot with nVidia proprietary driver
This problem still persists after yesterdays release so I can't upgrade to Natty at this time without losing support for my nVidia card. What extra information do I need to give? I've done some more messing about to see if I can fix the problem. I added the x-swat ppa to my Maverick system to see if the problem exists in Maverick with the latests driver and I got the same result when upgrading the nvidia-current driver: The xserver crashes and the system is completely unresponsive after the driver is loaded. I looked at the latest changelog for the driver which is installed in Natty http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-270.41.06-driver.html and it says: Fixed a bug that caused some GPUs to stop responding when the X Server was started. All GPUs are susceptible, but the failure was primarily seen on GF104 and GF106 boards. This sounds like the problem I am having, but the driver doesn't fix the bug for me?! I'd really like to use Natty, so any help is appreciated.
