[Bug 731810] Re: "conflicting memory types" -> "Failed to allocate primary buffer: out of memory"

 

I'm having the same problem. Most of the time I boot my systems, it
hangs right after showing the "kubuntu" splash screen and just where it
should show the "Nvidia" one.

If I turn off and on again the computer a few times (2 to 10 times),
eventually it will boot.

I have seen in the Nvidia forum
(http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=169294) the suggestion to
add the "nopat" kernel parameter in /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nopat"

However, I don't know what it means and what side effects that
workaround could have in performance or others, or even if that could
fix the problem.

Somewhere else I have seen the suggestion to remove "splash" from
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT. However, I don't know what that means
either.

Using Ubuntu Natty with all the recent updates.
