I installed the nvidia driver directly from the nvidia website. Installation went ok, but after reboot, Ubuntu logo appears fine, but when entering login, I hear Ubuntu startup sound, but the screen keeps black/blank.
Does anyone know what it is? I'm very tired, as long as I tried many things and nothing works.
I'm at a Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Warhal box.

I cant see any errors on my Xorg.0.log file.
Also on my blacklist:
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf
# generated by nvidia-installer
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
Worth to note that I have an Intel onboard video card installed apart from the dedicated nvidia one.
Any insights?
