I confirm this bug on a Jaunty Machine running amd64, 2 x nvidia 9400GT video cards, with bnoth the latest repo restricted drivers, and the latest binary blob direct from nvidia.
A workaround I found is to force the console into framebuffer mode with vga=791 (or whatever) as a boot parameter passed to the kernel. An alternative workaround is to use the open source driver. I think this is possibly a duplicate of 282068; except that there the bug is reported to affect ATI users as well. -- nvidia-glx-new causes unusable tty's https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
