[Bug 483201] [NEW] nvidia 95 drivers make x unstartable on a msi-6777 based motherboard

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

1.) 
Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
Release:	9.10

2.) 
xorg:
  Installed: 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
  Candidate: 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
  Version table:
 *** 1:7.4+3ubuntu7 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3.) I enabled nvidia 95 drivers in the restricted hardware manager.  I
expected that I would be able to use the nvidia features (specifically
tv out).

4.) 
Instead after a reboot - X would not start.  the console would just flicker until you did /etc/gdm stop

I'm not sure what additional information to include.
