[Bug 220951] Re: nvidia-glx-new causes unusable tty's

 

I confirm this bug on a Jaunty Machine running amd64, 2 x nvidia 9400GT
video cards, with bnoth the latest repo restricted drivers, and the
latest binary blob direct from nvidia.

A workaround I found is to force the console into framebuffer mode with
vga=791 (or whatever) as a boot parameter passed to the kernel. An
alternative workaround is to use the open source driver.

I think this is possibly a duplicate of 282068; except that there the
bug is reported to affect ATI users as well.
