** Description changed: I'm using Maverick 64 bit and have a geforce 310M card in a new dell vostro 3500 machine. When I installed the recommended nvidia propietary drivers I get a black screen but still can login with a shell. I tried the 260.19.04 beta driver from ubuntu-x-swat PPA, but also fails. I read in the forums that the issue could be related to the EDID, so I exported my EDID in windows and pointed xorg.conf to it but without luck. /var/log/Xorg.0.log says "(EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: no screens found" I'm attaching the nvidia-bug-report. BTW, If I remove all the nvidia drivers and the xorg.conf I get usable desktop with enabled 3D effects. + --- + Architecture: amd64 + DRM.card0.DisplayPort.1: + status: disconnected + enabled: disabled + dpms: On + modes: + edid-base64: + DRM.card0.HDMI_Type_A.1: + status: disconnected + enabled: disabled + dpms: On + modes: + edid-base64: + DRM.card0.LVDS.1: + status: connected + enabled: enabled + dpms: On + modes: 1366x768 + edid-base64: AP///////wAlzAYAAAAAAAATAQOQIhN4CsiFnldUmyYSUFQAAAABAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBxhtWf1AAGTAfFTQAWMIQAAAaxhtWf1AAGTAfFTQAWMIQAAAaAAAA/gBXNDY2UoAxNTZHVzAyAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEBCiAgAO8= + DRM.card0.VGA.1: + status: disconnected + enabled: disabled + dpms: On + modes: + edid-base64: + DRM.card1.HDMI_Type_A.2: + status: disconnected + enabled: disabled + dpms: On + modes: + edid-base64: + DRM.card1.VGA.2: + status: disconnected + enabled: disabled + dpms: On + modes: + edid-base64: + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 + DkmsStatus: bcmwl, 5.60.48.36+bdcom, 2.6.35-22-generic, x86_64: installed + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Alpha amd64 (20100919) + MachineType: Dell Inc.
