It seems that Lucid have chosen vga16fb per default. vga16fb doesn't
support the vga= parameter and ends in broken tty consoles.
So I exchanged vga16fb with vesafb.
I added vga16fb to the blacklist (/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf)
and removed vesafb from it.
Furthermore I added
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
this affects a friend from me on ubuntuusers.de too!

It affects linux 2.6.32-20-generic, too.
I use the nvidia-current driver (195.36.15).
The Kernel command line is:

Hy!
I did some testing around this:

What is the goal of using the vga=xxx options at boot? In Lucid, the
nvidia driver has kernel mode setting, which should result in a better
experience in the virtual terminal than under previous releases. The
vga=xxx options should not need to be used in lucid. Please confirm
whether the default
Because this has not been confirmed as an upstream kernel bug, and
likely can't be due to the proprietary nvidia module, I am marking this
as invalid against the upstream project.

I don't use a graphical boot. I prefer more text on a line.
But whatever.

Hy!
I think this bug is something about the blocklisted fb drivers since I
don't know what version of ubuntu...
before that we used the vga param to get a high resolution terminal, I
personally used it to get usplash work on my native 1280x800 resolution
(nvidia 8400m, if I simply enter the
I misspoke when I said nvidia will have kernel mode setting support in
Lucid. The nouveau drivers will have KMS, but the proprietary nvidia
drivers will not. Thus, the virtual terminal won't look the greatest
when using the nvidia drivers.

Is it possible for those still wanting high resolution virtual terminals
to use nouveau over nvidia? Nouveau will be the default in Lucid.

Well, maybe that is an acceptable solution if the stability of nouveau
will be good enough, but I had never any problems with the nvidia prop +
vesafb combo, so why I should not use it? no kms... ok... I don't care,
on my lcd screen, the resolution switch smooth and painless anyway...
And many
John,
I take it this option still breaks TTY consoles in Lucid?
Thanks!

John Yates,
Have you tested and verified this against the latest Lucid Alpha? If so,
I'd like to get you to run 'apport-collect -p linux 391215' so I can get
detailed information on your specific hardware.
Thanks!

this happens to me as well. Acer SK20, Intel 845 graphics so I don't
