Title:
  Switch tty, shutdown, reboot cause colorful screen on GeForce Go 6200

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I ctrl+alt+F1-6 to any tty, the machine freezes and gives me a
  very colorful screen! This also happens when I reboot or shutdown the
  machine"

  I'm running Ubuntu Feisty
  Linux kernel 2.6.20-13-generic
  Xorg version 7.2
  Nvidia GeForce Go 6200 with the latest Ubuntu driver 1.0-9755
  I have the latest BIOS version R0092V0 for my laptop Sony VAIO S3XP

  I have tested with Edgy 6.10 kernel 2.6.17 ... same problem.
  I have tried without "quiet splash vga=xxx" options in Grub config with no success. I have also tried with option "vga=normal" ... same problem.

  This is a very annoying problem!
