Hi I got the same thing, slow start of X with nvidia causing kdm to abort the start of X. Blinked screen many times and failed to start X and sometimes I had to try up to ten or more times to get into grapic mode.
I tried different kernels .28 .31-14 .31-15 and nvidia drivers 180 185 and 190 until I found this. Making the timeout a bit longer in kdm make it work fine. I found this from Daniel here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524751 To resolve the problem change or add in the X-*-Core section in /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc [X-*-Core] ServerTimeout=120 Hope it helps. -- Johan T Falun Sweden ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #524751 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524751 -- kdm fails to start/restart (but gdm does properly) in kubuntu karmic 64 bits and nvidia driver 185 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477066 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 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
