Hi,

I am using a SONY VPCF11M1E (Nvidia GT330M).

Installing Ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit) worked with a completly wrong resolution. Then choose to install the hardware drivers (version 260.19) and I got the same issues as above: Blank screen with cursor blinking at the left top of the screen. Not possible to choose another login screen, pressing the power button doesn't shutdown (you have to hold it up for 4 seconds to halt the PC)

I had to revert to the nvidia driver version 256.53 to make it work again.

The lines in the xorg.conf for customEDID is not necessary anymore from version 2.56.

It's a pity that this combination (Nvidia GT330M + FullHD 1920x1080) is not yet resolved as it was already known from Ubuntu 10.04LTS
