I can confirm I have this exact same problem. I have an Nvidia 9800GT 512MB. When I install the proprietary driver, I restart. Before it gets to the Ubuntu loading screen the screen goes completely black!
I have tried it at least 5 times and its still the same result. Getting that Nvidia driver working for me lately has become a real sore spot of Ubuntu. -- 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
