nVidia GeForce 6150 has garbage at startup

could you please attach your /etc/X11/xorg.conf ans /var/log/Xorg.0.log as attachment to this bug report? also, please attach the file dropped to your desktop after running:
lspci -vv >> ~/Desktop/lspcivv1.txt

thanks

Sure, I'll boot on the LiveCD and provide the files.

But isn't the boot splash using the framebuffer? X11 was working fine...

Here's the Xorg log.

Here it is for real (did not see the "Include attachment" checkbox)

Some more details :

Ubuntu 6.10 Desktop 64bit

* AMD Athlon64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+
* Onboard nVidia GeForce 6150
* X11 working, but horribly slow (e.g. moving a window)
* usplash not working properly
  * can see logo, but it is all grey and one horizontal line out of two is black
  * progress bar also grey and corrupted in strange ways

looks like you're using vesa in your xorg.conf (you forgot to attach that one :) )... try
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bckp1234
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

and choose "nv" instead of "vesa" as your driver. and restart X

if that fixes your problems, you might wanna google your card, or go to ubuntuforums.org or https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+tickets to get help with tweaking your xorg.conf further (for better performance).

Hello,

It is true that Ubuntu seems to have misdetected my card and is using vesa in X....

But I repeat that the main problem is with the splash screen at the startup (usplash), which to my understanding is using the framebuffer and NOT xorg.

This should be fixed in Feisty, please test if you can and reopen if it isn't.
