I'm using Kubuntu 9.04, a GeForce 9800M GS (laptop) video card with nVidia's drivers, version 180. If I press Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or F2-F6) I should go to a fullscreen text console (instead of the X server running on terminal 7). This works if I use the default drivers, but not if I use the nVidia ones. Instead, it goes to a fully black screen (backlight off), with sound no longer audible (songbird is so nice to actually pause the music)
(How) can I solve this? I need the nVidia drivers, or stuff will be slow and ugly.
Here is my xorg.conf. You should know that I've never touched it, it's all automatically managed:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
EndSection
xorg.conf
? It could help in finding a solution.
