I too am experiencing this. I've got an HP Pavilion Slimline PC, ubuntu 10.04 LTS desktop AMD64, with nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430] (rev a2). I've installed the current nvidia drivers. The splash screens, when they do show up, are very low resolution. It seems like half of the time gdm will start, and the other half of the time, it will throw me to a console login screen. I'm using a widescreen VGA monitor with a resolution of 1440x900, which never seemed to show up with or without the nvidia drivers, so I've had to tweak my xorg.conf file slightly to get that working. Attached are the files I believe to be relevant, but as I'm still new to all this, I apologize if I've given too much information. I believe Xorg.0.log will hint at why this is happening.
