I managed to get this working by changing the cables used. Here's the time line:- 32-bit feisty working with one 7900GT with two 20 DFPs connected to the two connectors on the card using DVI to DVI cables Install 64-bit feisty, the installer works, but the second I enable the nvidia driver it

OK I've just subscribed to this bug because I want to know what happens in the next instalment of this saga. Why does the VGA cable work? Will the monitors ever work with DVI again? Does Alan have any teeth left after the gnashing incident? -- New feisty 64bit install causes nvidia card failure

Thanks for the kind words and prompt reply. I know how frustrating a lack of information can be (I answer support tickets in launchpad). Just to clarify, this problem _started_ at the point I installed Ubuntu Feisty 64-bit with the NVidia driver 9631 from the Ubuntu repository. As far as the

Alan: You can't even see grub? Well assuming it was set to appear that definitely needs a bug of its own. If you used to be able to see grub and no longer can that suggests something quite severe along the lines of hardware failure (e.g. disk corruption). How do you know your system even still

Hmm just reread - no BIOS splash! That's pretty bad. Nothing the nvidia binary driver can do should last over a reboot though (of course I don't know whether it is capable of flashing the video BIOS but I'd be highly surprised). I can't even begin to imagine what's happened here but I'd get in

I can't see anything at all, imagine you had unplugged the screen and booted a PC. That's what I see :) I know it boots because I waited until the disk went idle and switched to a console - blind - and logged in, installed an ssh server and can now ssh in quite happily. The box is definately up

The machine has two 7900GTs in SLI mode. I have removed both and reseated just one. Both 20 flat panel displays are connected to one card - the only card in the machine right now. I have reverted back to nvidia-glx-new (9755) and have attached the xorg.log from the current reboot. I copied the

Thanks for your bug report. Alan: This is an extremely thorough bug report - all the logs and files are already here. Utterly fantastic! Unfortunately you went on to manually installed the binary drivers so no longer makes sense to report problems to this part of launchpad I'm afraid. See
