    xorg blank screen

    Ok i have a mach speed motherboard it has a PCIE and a MGA (AGP) slot
    Ubuntu runs fine till i load the nvidia driver and then when i reboot i have a blank screen.

    What do i need to do to make the driver work so i can use the accelerated graphics?

    and it doesnt matter which slot i use it does the same thing with eith rype of video card

    Hi and Welcome !

    Have you installed Nvidia Proprietary driver through Hardware Drivers option available in Administrative Menu?

    Ubuntu runs fine till i load the nvidia driver and then when i reboot i have a blank screen.
    Press Alt+Ctrl+F3. Dose it switch to command line mode? Execute this
    Code:
    sudo lspci | grep -i vga
grep - i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    Post output here.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
