Is this fixed yet?
I've been wasintg a huge amount of time with this bug. I have now got a
PCI-Express Card and can finally actually boot my computer (and after
only 2 months). BUT, now I get the screen going black every feww
minutes or when I change windows.
I tried to install the ATI
No joy.
I tried both adding the 'vmalloc=256MB' to the boot line in Grub and the
menu.lst. Neither seems to have helped enable the Nvidia drvr. I'm also
noticing that when I show the restricted hardware options I don't see a
a list of nvidia drivers ( 173, 180, etc ) anymore rather I just get a
Here's the problem:
[ 30.912314] vmap allocation failed: use vmalloc=size to increase size.
Please see the section in the README about this error.

Is this a cmd line option to something or a kernal/mod re-compile ?
PS: I almost forgot the thank you for looking into this with me.
After looking througth the log a third time a couple things do stand
out, which is what I think you are commenting on though I have no idea
on how to address at
It's a kernel parameter. The README entry I was referring to is this one:

It appears that the message changed, but I believe this is the same
problem. The RmInitAdaptor failed messages are a direct
Hello, thank you for the followup suggestion.
I'm attaching the nvidia-bug-report.log. I don't see anything attracting
my attention as to what might need to be corrected, but I'm no expert.
Seem's like it ought to turn-on and not throw me back to console mode,
but ... ? I've had some other Vista
Whenever you see the message, Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics
device, you need to check your kernel log to see why the kernel module
couldn't be initialized. Your best bet is to reproduce the problem, run
nvidia-bug-report.sh, and then attach the resulting log.
** Changed in:
To blacklist the module, add the following to the end of
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf :
blacklist cx18
Reboot and try to enable your restricted drivers.
Let me know how you make out.

I added the cx18 module to the blacklist (usually used for video capture
cards like the Hauppage) and the problem is resolved for me.
I remember doing this in 8.10, but it made no difference then.

I've got a Hauppage video card. I didn't think Ubuntu was even aware of
it. I don't use it with Ubuntu ( yet anyway, as I struggle to get basic
OpenGL graphics working ). Any hints on how to check status of cx18 (??)
and disable it to see if it makes any difference.
I can resend logs, etc. but
Ok, another weekend, another try, and still no joy. I disabled the CD
option in the update manager. At least Jockey didn't crash this time.
However, the only option in hardware drivers this time was for nv -
which appeared to default to nv-173. Jockey looked for drivers but
didn't even offer
