Well..

This is what happens with 13.10's  3.11.0-13 kernel.  (reboot after I installed it)
The screen goes dark (probably not off) for a couple of seconds after hitting enter in grub.
Then it goes back on, writing startup messages (first one is, strangely, starting SystemD login service)

I did a full power cycle.. 
the screen got dark for 12 seconds  (I measured it this time)
and the first message displayed was what I expected (fsk message saying disk is OK)

(+ a different issue emerged: In both cases  the SLiM login manager was
started (incorrectly) on VT1.  )

It's not perfect, but I guess it allows you to mark this issue fixed :)

Title:
  GeForce FX 5700 - Digital DVI output turned off on boot, X11 does not
  see the output at all.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I upgraded to Raring and  lost my digital video output.

  The computer has "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV36.2 [GeForce FX 5700] (rev a1)" video card.
  The card has two connectors (VGA and DVI-I) and provides THREE video outputs (2x analogue, 1x digital)

  The card's bios correctly detects which outputs are connected and uses them.
  I can see BIOS and GRUB on digital.
  But then the kernel boots and turns the DVI-I:Digital output off  (and turns on DVI-I:Analogue)

  I am planning to reinstall that machine, so I don't  mind  running unverified kernels on them.
  Mainline kernel will be tested next.
