Hi I updated today the nvidia driver from version 177 to 180, this in order to solve an other bug. Since I upgraded the nvidia drivers I have the same bug.
After the login the screen became black, I can hear the login sound etc, I can left click with the mouse on the screen (and after discover that I did) but the screen is completely black. The only solution is opening a terminal ctrl-alt-F1 (the terminal is fine, I can perfectly see it) and than switch to the GUI using alt-F7. My system is: Ubuntu 8.10 kernel: Linux nittux 2.6.27-12-generic #1 SMP Thu Feb 5 09:26:42 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux nvidia driver: 180.11 computer: HP dv6915nr graphic card: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M If needed ask for other detail -- video comes up black after logging in but can be recovered using ctrl-alt-f1 then ctrl-alt-f7 every boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330549 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
