Hi everyone..I am having problems with setiing up Nvidia drivers for Ubuntu Natty on my laptop (Inspiron 15R ). Installation of drivers is successful, but on reboot I am stuck with a black screen after the Ubuntu five dots splashscreen. As a possible solution obtained from various forums, I have made a custom edid file and included it in xorg.conf and also used the BusID option in the device section. This helped me to eliminate all errors in xorg.0.log (like screens not found etc etc), so that now there are only 2 warnings related to hotplugging and no errors. But still the problem isn't solved. I continue to get the black screen. Please help!
My xorg log file and xorg.conf are as below:

xorg.0.log :

I'm pretty sure your display is 1366x768. Why are you trying to force it to 1024x768? Also, what is the custom EDID for? Laptop panels are usually bog standard..

Try (re)moving the /etc/xorg.conf altogether.

The CRT-0 refered Custom EDID would not take any effect as the Monitor Name is spec'ed as "Monitor0"...

If he removes or renames the xorg.conf-- then he will need to boot with nomodeset... but it be running without the nvidia driver.

Boot on LiveCD and get to a terminal. Post the results of


lspci -nn | grep VGA
- Then my next question is if the driver is Ubuntu package or straight from NVidia?
- What driver is it?
- Does it start up in Rescue mode?
