["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Robert Arkenin, could you please confirm this issue exists with the
latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains,
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:
  All native Linux terminals and Grub unreadable

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

Bug description:
  In certain situations(A list follows), my graphics card(Nvidia GTX 590), and my integrated graphics card(Nvidia 6150SE) both receive invalid data, causing my monitor to err with 'Frequency out of range'. I have also tested other monitors, with the same results.
  This occurs when:
  1)I am booting and am at grub2.
  2)Ubuntu is booting after Linux has initialized, but before the X window system or LightDM have loaded.
  3)I attempt to access one of the linux real terminals with [CTRL]+[ALT]+[F1-F6] ([F7] returns to X window system)
  4)For a second after logoff, until the logon screen displays normally.

  Note:This appears to happen with all of the Nvidia driver versions, and nouveau.
  This bug should get some importance as if bootup fails, it is next-to-impossible to diagnose it without seeing the terminal.

  I have seen this starting with Natty, and continuing with Oneiric.
