Daniel Dadap, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

Run "startx" from a VT 3. Once the desktop is up, open a few windows. 4. Switch back to the VT that you ran "startx" on 5. Hit enter 6. Switch back to the VT that X is running on With the nouveau and vesa drivers, what we see is that all windows are now blank and filled with white, and the GNOME menu and shortcut icons in the top panel are missing. Other items in the panel appear to be unaffected and are responsive to input. With the NVIDIA binary driver, all we see is a black screen with a cursor. Not too many will be starting desktop sessions with "startx", let alone switching to the VT they started X from and hitting enter, but this still probably deserves some investigation.
