I found the following solution to this problem: * BIOS -> PCI / Plug and Play Setup * Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA: Yes (before: No)
Kernels 3.2.0-39, 3.2.0-40, 3.5.0-26 work without problems. Kernel 3.9.0-030900rc3 fails again in uvesafb, so I do not see anything during booting: kernel: [ 2.438172] uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed (eax=0x4f00, err=0) kernel: [ 2.438222] uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22 kernel: [ 2.438254] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22 The Xorg.log is attached. Some more information regarding my system: * Mainboard: Elitegroup K7S5A * BIOS: AMIBIOS 1.21.06 * Graphics card: GeForce FX 5200 in an AGP slot While I can use the latest kernel without problems again, it would probably still be interesting to find out the reason why I have to change a BIOS setting with kernels younger than 3.2.0-38. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.log when booting 3.9.0-rc3 with 'Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA' set to 'Yes'" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1157878/+attachment/3643764/+files/3.9_rc3_Xorg.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157878 Title: No X with nvidia after upgrade from 3.2.0-38 to 3.2.0-39 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1157878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
