Same issue w/ Nvidia 310M on sony vaio VPCS11V9E. Xorg.log reports: [ 18.690] (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device DFP-0's EDID; cannot compute DPI [ 18.690] (WW) NVIDIA(0): from DFP-0's EDID.
I had the same issue in 10.04 and solved it with a CustomEDID line in xorg.conf. The same thing in 10.10 does not work. With it no errors are reported though. Just one warning regarding CRT-0 (vga connector in 10.04): [ 19.169] (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0 I've also tried the latest stuff from ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates ppa. -- Black screen after installing Nvidia drivers on 10.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660596 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
