Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

my Sager 5791 laptop and Nvidia  GeForce 8700M GT card have worked
without problems from Hardy through Karmic. With a clean install of
Lucid and the Nvidia binary driver from the distribution (Hardware Info
says "version current"), text is completely unreadable in virtual
terminals - i looks like randomly-colored blocks. Display in Gnome, with
and without Compiz, is fine. The problem also occurs with the version
173 driver.
