[Bug 35930] Re: Nvidia Driver + Consolle ttyXX = Problem

[Michael DePaulo]

I think this problem is occurring again for those of us with HP pavilion
TX1000 series (TX1000z, TX1100 series, TX1200 series, and TX1300 series)
and probably the TX2000 series laptops/Tablet PCs.

Here is someone else who experienced the problem.

For me specifically, I have noticed at least two cases. There may be more that are a combination of the two.:
1. switching to the console (tty1 or other ones) after loading X w/ nvidia causes the screen to become a light blue, which changes a little bit. I can then switch back to X and use X again. However, if I try to shutdown, it fails to. I get the corrupt output screen and the shutdown sound repeats.
2. Switching to the console causes X to crash. In the console, there are blue lines going up and down. I can however shutdown the computer, and as it shuts down it still has the lines.

** Attachment added: "Corrupt blue-white screen output."
