guys,

ive got a hp dv2845se+Ubuntu 8.10.

since ive installed the 2.6.27-11 kernel, and updated the nvidias driver
to NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22-pkg1 or NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.27-pkg1 i
noticed this: ubuntu starts, i get to the logon page and, after entering
'username' and 'password' screen just fades black and dont come back.

i have tried to stop/start gdm as a test but, the same thing happens.

so, after checking some files over tty2, when i came back to tty7 to see it 
anything had changed, gnome was there(and as long as i authenticated before, i 
was in gnome authenticated allright).
so the problem is that, once ive upgraded the kernel to 2.6.27-11 and updated 
the nvidias driver to 180.22, after authenticating user/pass, screen fades 
black. going tty2 and coming back to tty7 kind of solve the problem but, this 
must be a bug or something, i dont know.

am i missing some configuration ?

by the way, kernel 2.6.27-11 works just fine with nvidias driver 177.82.
and by 'works fine' i mean that everything works fine after entering
user/pass. there is no fade to black without coming to the normal screen
with the icons and stuff.

thank you all in advance,

ifho.
