I'm not sure which it is... but since I have updated to the new

soon as I logout the screen goes black, and all I can do is reboot.
I can confirm the same behavior. Blank console (although the monitor
sync rate reports that the text mode *has* been set correctly) under
the vesa driver on a Geforce 5700 Ultra. The behavior was the same
under both the XFree and xorg X servers.
The NVidia drivers work fine, although they require a kernel recompile
as the nvidia module won't work with CONFIG_4KSTACKS.
