Alternatively (this works for me with Lucid, Nvidia with grub2) you can edit your grub (sudo gedit /etc/default/grub) file and add the following:
GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x800 GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1280x800x32 then run: sudo update-grub The "keep" borks the terminals for gfxpayload but the GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX works well if you specify the resolution. Note this will not work with non-GRUB2 bootloaders (i.e., GRUB) so you may have to update to GRUB2 if you are running the older grub. -- vga=791 kernel line option breaks tty consoles https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/391215 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
