Hi, I've recently installed Arch on my laptop, which basically runs good so far. However I've got a really annoying problem, which I couldn't find a solution so far. My laptop has a dedicated graphics card (GeForce 310M). I would like to have the best performance and battery life. This unfortunately excludes the nouveau driver at the moment. So I've installed the nvidia package according to the wiki. But now I've got the problem that as soon as I start the X server, I've got a blank screen whenever switching back to the consoles (tty1-tty6). This consoles stay blank even when killing the X server, which basically means that I can't use any consoles anymore. I've found a reference to that error in the Gentoo wiki [1], however there seems to be no good solution so far :(. Now I'm asking you whether some of you have experienced the same issue, and maybe know of some work-around? What could possibly mess things so up? Best regards, Karol Babioch [1] http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Nvidia#Blank_Screen_When_Switching_From_X_to_Console
