Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 1 AMD 64-bit optimized build on a GeForce (maybe 
any NVIDIA?)
2) Install either of the video drivers that Ubuntu suggests (NVIDIA accelerated 
graphics driver version 173 or version 185)
3) Reboot

Expected Results:
Ubuntu reboots and everything loads just fine

Actual Results:
Ubuntu boots only the command-line on a black screen instead of X

Extra Information:
I know and can vouch for the fact that (version 185 of the graphics driver 
works great on Ubuntu 9.10) There is a newer graphics driver available that 
requires a complicated manual install. I have not tried it, but it might not 
break X, like versions 173 and 185.

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
