Hi José,
The problem lies in the primary buffer (extracted from your xorg.log):
[ 153.672] (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "nvidia-auto-select"
[ 153.735] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate primary buffer: out of memory.
[ 153.735] (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
[ 153.735]
Fatal server error:
[ 153.735] AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0
You have this graphic card:
GPU GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a (C61)
Have you tried to install the nvidia drivers 173 instead of 256?
Have you installed the latest grub-common and grub-pc packages
(1.98+20100722-1ubuntu1)?
José, this is just an idea (if the above does not help), but you might try to
edit the file:
/etc/grub.d/00_header
by adding an extra line after the line:
set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE}
Add this line there:
set gfxpayload=keep
Like this:
...
set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE}
set gfxpayload=keep
...
Save the file and then run in terminal:
sudo update-grub
and reboot (of course nvidia drivers installed and correct xorg.conf
after running "sudo nvidia-xconfig").
