Public bug reported:
With 2 GB of RAM in the notebook, Gutsy works fine. Once I put in
another GB module, Gutsy crashes at startup causing an immediate reboot.
I think the problem is related to the Nvidia drivers. Neither the
opensource nor the binary driver work. I can boot up with 3GB and the
vesa driver however.
I attached dmesg outputs of a normal boot with 2GB and the binary driver
as well as a boot with 3 gb in safe graphics (selected in grub).
I am currently using the newest nvidia driver (installed via Envy) but I
have the same problem with the default Gutsy nv driver. Both 32 bit and
64 bit versions crash.
I really hope someone can help me with this, as I'd really prefer to use
3 GB.
Thank you in advance!
P.S.: Before Ubuntu I used Windows Vista which worked with 3 GB. I removed it,
but I just wanted to say there must be some way to use the nvidia chip with 3GB
:)
