Same for me. Update from Ubuntu 10.04 to Ubuntu 10.10 triggers black screen on boot on the Sony Vaio VPCS11M9R [GeForce GT 310M].
Linux xxx 2.6.35-22-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Sun Oct 10 09:26:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux nvidia-current 260.19.06-0ubuntu1 Temporary workaround: 1. rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf This workaround brings me 1280x720 resolution instead of native 1366x768. Also nvidia-settings say: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver." -- [GeForce GT 330M] nvidia 260.19.06-0ubuntu1 update triggers black screen on boot for sony vaio F-series https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657634 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
