Public bug reported:
I have an NVidia GT 610 graphics card with the "nvidia-current
295.40-0ubuntu1.1" driver installed. Video is flawless when booting
directly into the standard kernel. However, when attempting run Ubuntu
12.04 as dom0 in Xen using the 295.40 driver, my screen invariably goes
blank just after seeing the initial Ubuntu splash screen. and always
before the LightDM login screen is displayed.
I'll just add that I have experienced nearly the same issue using the
304.43 driver obtained from ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates. However, when
attempting run Ubuntu 12.04 as dom0 in Xen using the 304.43 driver, I
can get to the LightDM login screen, but then my screen invariably goes
blank when I attempt to start Unity from LightDM.
I'll further add that the Nvidia card was installed to replace an older
graphics card (which I no longer have and don't recall the make, but am
pretty sure it didn't have an Nvidia chipset) whose cooling fan had
died. I never had any problems running Ubuntu as dom0 in Xen with that
older card.
