Hi again,

For those mot up to date.  I built a new rig that has a Nvidia GT220 card in
it.  I bought a brand new monitor this morning, a LG W2253, and it worked
one time.  I had to reboot to move some things around and when I rebooted,
the GUI doesn't come up.  The BIOS screen shows up and I can see the
services start up as well but when it switches to vt7, it just has a little
blinking cursor at the top.
At first glance my guess is that your kernel is configured incorrectly somehow.

I have a similar card (Nvidia GT 240). I am using fully ~amd64 system
and it all works. FWIW, below are my settings&  a couple thoughts too.

I can send you my kernel .config if you want. Let me know! Good luck :)


You are correct, it was a kernel config issue. Nvidia needs CONFIG_SYSVIPC enabled in the kernel to work correctly.
