I have just added the nvidia-modeset.ko to my setup to load on startup and have my monitor back. Maybe this should be documented in UPDATING? BTW I also have another minor issue now, the text VTYs display some ascii art style garbage. It also changes if I press keys, so they do react to input. Maybe I'm missing some configuration or is it a bug? Or some incompatibility with my video card (GeForce GT 630)? -- Guido Falsi <mad@madpilot.net>
