Public bug reported:

The nVidia proprietary driver has always needed the
"NoPowerConnectorCheck" option on xorg.conf for working properly, as
described in bug #522588

Now performing Case ID: xpr-001 there's a regression because now the
screen in text mode is flashing and doens't make possible to change tty
for loggin in in textual mode and add the option.

I tryied logging in with ssh from another pc and I've found these lines
in /var/log/syslog
