Users / [solved] Black screen after starting X-Server
« on: November 17, 2007, 07:41:31 am »
Hi
My MD gets stuck while booting, I see the outputs and at the point where X-Server starts the screen gets black. Looking at the logs I can see, that X-Server had been started. Checking syslog, dmesg and pluto-log for my MD shows no errors, same for the logs on the core. Maybe I missed the correct log.
I have an nVidia GF5200 in my MD (Inspiron 8600). No problems Installing Kubuntu as OS on my Laptop, the nVidia-driver works fine. I already had a look at http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/Display_Drivers. But didn't try it. The solution in Display_Drivers is for the core? I don't won't to mess it up, because it seems to run properly.
Any hints where to start?
Thanks
Chris
