Bug Description

I'm using an Acer Travelmate 632 LCi notebook which has a NVIDIA2Go graphics chip inside. Ubuntu suggests to aktivate the enhanced driver for NVIDIA, but after reboot, the display stays black. I can hear the logon-sound, but can't see anything.

Any idea?

This sounds very similar to Bug #109414 as mentioned on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia ...
