hi guys,
funky problem... when loading x, my screen gets just black, xorg.0.log shows no error messages, but just stops after registering:

Code:

(...)
(II) Setting vga for screen 0.
(**) NVIDIA(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(==) NVIDIA(0): RGB weight 888
(==) NVIDIA(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(==) NVIDIA(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(--) NVIDIA(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xD0000000
(--) NVIDIA(0): MMIO registers at 0xE4000000


so the problem seems to be the kernel, after this freaky stuff is what dmesg gives me:

Code:

(...)

You are using a masked version of nvidia-kernel -- give the stable release a try.


Hth, Alex!!!
