Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-180

I am testing Karmic on my Lenovo laptop. I applied all the latest
updates and then tried to install the nvidia driver using Hardware
Drivers. I chose the recommended nvidia-glx-180, which is currently
working fine with Jaunty. When I reboot shortly after the Ubuntu logo
appears I get a black screen. I can't access a terminal via Alt-Ctrl-F1,
so can't get any furhter info about what went wrong.

lspci shows 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M
[Quadro NVS 110M/GeForce Go 7300] (rev a1)

I have a disk image before I tried to install the nvidia driver, so if
anyone can suggest a method of collecting more information, I can roll
back to this image and try again.

Apologies if this bug gets submitted twice, but Launchpad crashed on the
first attempt.

Ian.
