It simply does not work with kernel 2.6.32. Affected all ubuntu systems 10.04 LTS. Changing nvidia driver does not help at all. This is clearly not an nvidia-graphics-drivers but a regression in the linux kernel or kernel options. Guys who build kernel for the ubuntu should just make a diff

I agree with Alberto that it's most probably a kernel issue, because there are no problems in other distros (at least in Fedora and openSUSE). It could be a glitch in some of the ubuntu crazy kernel patches (I'd appreciate an option to turn them off)... And finally, I have a question: Do you

@daemonx: I have the very same problem on Fedora rawhide, running kernel 2.6.38, so I don't think this is an ubuntu issue. (Fedora handles it silghtly better in that it will not give me a completely black screen, but actually boots up into graphical VESA mode). -- You received this bug

Is there anything that can be done to get back into a somewhat normal boot mode? After the text Kubuntu 11.04 comes up and some commands running underneath, the screen clears and then freezes. In Grub, I have to put a # next to: set gfxpayload=slinux_gfx_mode in order to get further into the boot
