@nathanwill: thank you for responding. Right now, I have no accessable screens.
I didn't have any problems with Nouveau, I just wanted the better response I
get from the proprietary drivers. I found that Nvidia had an update: 302.07; I
manually installed it with worse results than I got from the default: 295.40.
Playing a flash video for about 10 secs. caused it to logout. I rebooted-no
screens. I'm not sure how that happened-I've done this quite a few times in the
past without issues.
I have a homebuilt desktop:
Asus P7P55D-E motherboard
Intel I5-750 quad core CPU
Ripjaws ram-8gb
Nvidia 9800GT GPU
Western Digital 1 tb hdd-Windows 7 Professional & Ubuntu 11.10 x86_amd64
Western Digital 160 gb ide hdd-I use this for Ubuntu 12.04 x86_amd64
Seasonic 650w 'gold' PSU
I started with the default Nvidia 295.40, logout problems began right away.
Changed to Nouveau, no problems, switched to Nvidia 302.07 and worse logout
problems, rebooted and now no screen. console access only. I hope this helps.
Thank You!
