Marc, yes that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying the keyboard shortcuts that should switch to VC1, login to VC1 and then reboot/halt. I've also tried to login to a VC and connect to a local webserver with w3m to get a "GET" request appearing in the apache logs. While that works from the safe graphics mode (where the graphics are working), it fails on the blank screen. The fact that both of these fail suggests that it might not be actually doing anything or even getting as far as the login prompt on startup.
The motherboard has integrated Intel GMA 3100 graphics so I will try to remove the nvidia card and boot connected to the intel graphics. -- 9.10 beta fails to boot into LiveCD (flashing text on beta/straight black on later images) - black screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444395 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
