[Bug 421442] [NEW] system freeze on boot with proprietary nvidia drivers 185

 

Public bug reported:

hello all
i just installed kubuntu 9.10 (karmic koala B4 with recent updates) and i wanted to test nvidia driver
Activated the driver v185 with jockey-kde "hardware-drivers" and did a reboot.

on boot i can see the kubuntu logo for a few seconds then the screen
flickered a bit printing some white little square and then got
completely black.

i cannot activate numlock led anymore and neither do a remote ssh or telnet.
my hw config 
Intel Quad core on Asus P5Q motherboard with 4GB RAM
video : 
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G92 [GeForce 9800 GTX] (rev a2)

All i can do is reboot in recovery mode and replace xorg.conf's nvidia
by nv driver.


Do you you need more information to debug this issue ?

Regards

Massimo
ps : i joined the nvidia-debug output log (made with nv driver )
