Hi,
Sometimes when I start my Ubuntu 7.04 box I get an annoying problem - it
doesn't.
If when it is starting up it has to check a disk (more than 20 mounts
etc) it goes through all of the usual startup then fails at the point
where the Nvidia logo should flash. At this point the keyboard is locked
out so turn off and restart is the only option (hard reset using just
goes through the motions and gets back to the same point).
I also noticed that it always has the message:
> Aug  6 15:01:57 heracles kernel: [   47.173023] codec_read: codec 0 is not 
> valid [0xfe0000]

> valid [0xfe0000]
I' using the binary drivers for my GeForce nVidia 6200 card.
This problem with startup occurs infrequently but I suspect that the
binary nVidia drivers may be the reason for both the problem and kernel
log entry I've included.

Any clues appreciated.
