Same behavior on raring with nvidia drivers 304.84, but it's not only a blank screen: the video output if switched off. Please note that the tty is working underneath, if I login and type reboot, it works... so it seems to be a video issue.
If I remove quite splash from grub as someone suggests, I cannot even switch to tty anymore (it remains on desktop). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/958891 Title: no tty, only blank screen with nvidia driver Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I can't use ctl+alt+FXX screens with nvidia.
