(Get the code!)
I also confirm a similar bug:
Until the 2.6.20-12 Kernel (older driver?), I could start X with nvidia with some minor problems (-> also applied to edgy):
- When stopping or restarting X (e.g. powering down), there was a frequent graphic corruption - I have framebuffers enabled, so there seems to be another problem.
- When not running with the nvidia-driver, the problem was gone.
With the 2.6.20-13 upgrade, I experience grevious problems:
- random system crashes (blackouts and automatic reboots): This happens after logging in. There is a short moment before the gnome loading panel is displayed, when I see a graphic corruption, then the display either gets ok or it crashes the whole system. Sometimes a system crash occurs after some while (using metacity).
I also tried this with a completely new Xorg.conf-File just replacing "nv" to "nvidia" - this caused the same effects, so it seems to be a driver problem.
I use the 2.6.20-13-generic SMP Kernel with the latest nvidia-glx-Driver on a LG M1 Pro - this means (according to lspci): nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1).
