Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
On latest version of Karmic, booting up will only take me as far as to show the glowing Ubuntu logo, then it'll move to a completely blank screen and do nothing.
A semi-workaround is to rename xorg.conf, this allows Ubuntu to boot, but because NVidia generates its own custom xorg.conf file, I lose 3D support and dual-monitor support. Regenerating a new xorg with nvidia-xconfig takes me back to an un-bootable system. I have a GTX260 NVidia card.
