I've tried both: 1. sudo vi /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add fbcon and vesafb fbcon vesafb
2. sudo update-initramfs -u 3. sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer change the line "blacklist vesafb" to "# blacklist vesafb" 4. reboot and everything is fine and: 1. sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer * change the line "blacklist vesafb" to "# blacklist vesafb" and "blacklist nvidiafb" to "# blacklist nvidiafb" 2. sudo nano /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add fbcon and vesafb and nvidiafb 3. sudo update-initramfs -u -k all and neither worked. The 1st seemed to have no effect at all. The second messed up X so that I only had a very low res gui I've put everything back to how it was but it's very frustrating not to be able to use tty. uspalsh shows on boot up and shut down, but I can only see the white text on black back ground bits on boot up. I get an out of range error (same as for tty) on powering down when it gets to those bits. Is this likely to be fixed any time soon with an update any time soon? -- tty[1-6] are active but display nothing in Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129910 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
