I had this problem of flickering while DRM compiled a new kernel module against the latest Karmic kernel. The flickering lasted a considerable time but after a few minutes presumably when the compilation had finished the system booted to a standard gdm screen and set the resolution properly. I checked and the nvidia module was loaded and acceleration was enabled perfectly fine.
The mad flashing for several minutes was however very disturbing I must say and gave the impression of a video driver mismatch. -- upgrade breaks graphic drivers and x, preventing login or startx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
