           Product: XFree86
         Component: XFree86
           Summary: nvidia driver messes up console mode (framebuffer?)
           Product: XFree86
           Version: 4.3-17mdk
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XFree86
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I don't know if this is an nvidia issue, XFree or maybee even kernel, but I 
hope some does. 
 
After installing and using nvidia driver with XFree in a fresh 9.2 beta 2 the 
font (and penguin) in ctrl-alt-1 through 6 is totally garbled. It takes up 
half the screen and flickers. The same goes for the shutdown sequence which is 
but blurr on the screen; because the bootup sequence comes before XFree init 
it looks as beautiful as ever, even with nvidia. Using "nv" instead of 
"nvidia" driver fixes the problem. 
 
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run used to build kernel module with 
kernel-source-2.4.21-6mdk. Ti-4200 64MB.
