I saw the following in the release notes for version 319.17 of the NVIDIA driver (http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display- amd64-319.17-driver.html):
"* Added initial support for restoration of efifb consoles on UEFI systems where the primary display is driven over VGA or TMDS (e.g. DVI, HDMI, or LVDS)." It looks like NVIDIA is doing something about this, but their priority is UEFI systems where they have to support interoperating with a framebuffer backed console. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1063969 Title: NVIDIA does not work with framebuffer drivers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1063969/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
