I want to follow up again adding that I am using 64-bit Ubuntu 9.10 Also, based on this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1307653.html I am suspecting the problem is with 185 driver. Maybe. If so, I guess it's an nVidia issue, but it may need to be confirmed.
Also, if anyone does get this "black screen of death" try doing a ctrl- alt-f1. That got me to the command prompt where I was able to at least run a sudo restart to reboot nicely. -- Display won't wake up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468367 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
