2009-10-09 21:04:56 Bryce Harrington description affected machine: Pentium 4 with GPU NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600 NVIDIA driver version: 173.14.16 VBIOS Version: 04.31.20.40.00 Bus Type: AGP 8X Ubuntu version: 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) After initial installation of the ubuntu everything was OK (except that there no advanced XServer features are available). Afterwards I activated the proprietary accelerated NVIDIA Xserver (marked as "recommended") . It started to work without any complaints. However the text console became an unusable mixture of colors and text: Most of the screen area covered by a colour rectangle hiding most of eventual text. The login/password prompt shown twice: in the upper left corner and in the lower right corner. Practically unusable. Each of the 6 text consoles (accessible by Ctrl-Alt-F<n>) equally affected. The problem is the same after every boot of the machine. In graphical sessions everything looks fine (GoogleEarth works, for example). affected machine: Pentium 4 with GPU NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600 NVIDIA driver version: 173.14.16 VBIOS Version: 04.31.20.40.00 Bus Type: AGP 8X Ubuntu version: 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) After initial installation of the ubuntu everything was OK (except that there no advanced XServer features are available).
