Re: Fwd: nVidia g230m black screen after drivers SOLVED ?

 

Hi all,

About the link i send on trying to fix the nvidia drivers issue..
here is a more newbie-proof tutorial :
http://hatmaandnovi.com/operating-system/how-to-install-nvidia-g210m-driver-and-internal-mic-on-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-and-sony-vaio-vpccw18fj/

Although, I tried it and after reboot all I get is the same blank screen..
booting on "safe-mode" and trying to startx i get "no screen found" error,
and of course, no X.. hehe

anyone has tried this yet or any idea what may be happening ?

Sorry for all the continuos emails, im just trying to make a 100% on my
ul30..

thanks in advance

manco
