OK, will take a look at them in a bit. It is AM here and just getting
started. Although Lonni is on it. :-)
nvidia-xconfig in run level 3 and use the xorg.conf it generated?
I believe that you are able to get the login prompt at level 3, right?
No, I see no display of virtual consoles. I did run system-config-display
and nvidia-settings . I can try nvidia-xconfig and nvidia-config-display
from runlevel 5 later.
Sorry, just want to reconfirm a couple of things.
1. When your system is first powered on, the monitor comes out of standby
mode and you do see the system's BIOS screens and if you wanted to you could
go into the BIOS settings displays. Yes?
2. If #1 is yes, can you see the grub menu? If yes, what happens when you
use "a" to change the kernel start line to remove rhgb and add "3" to boot
to run level 3. Do you still end up with a blank screen?
3. Aside from 1 and 2. When you boot and have the blank screen...can you
use the "menu" buttons on your display and have the "on screen menu" show
the "Display Mode"?. If I recall correctly, part of the symptoms of my
problem was that the monitor's display mode showed "Analog" instead of
"Digital". So, even if only the digital cable was plugged in the monitor
kept thinking the "Analog" was alive and would not switch mode...giving a
blank screen.
