Nukam, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Nvidia GT240 screen corruption after boot

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am currently running Win7 and want to dual boot Ubuntu 10.10 on my
  computer I am currently running AMD Phenom II X4 940 Processor at 3.0
  Ghz, 6gigs of ram, and have a Nvidia GT240.

  My issue is that when I boot from the disc I get up to the Ubuntu
  loading screen and then it shows my background all scrambled and
  nothing happens, I cant do anything, no windows pop up at all. Is this
  and issue with my computer or with the disc, or maybe im missing
  something necessary. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  
  EDIT: Visual Addition
  Booting through the disc, which brings me here:
