Black box over Video
#1
Hi folks,

I have a strange problem.
Updates my Ubuntu this morning (10.04), and one of the packages was nvidia-current, and the only one affecting XBMC in anyway.
When I now try to watch a Video, it will play fine for 1-2 minutes, and then suddenly I have a Black box above the video images.
I can see a small bar on the top from the video, and the video is still playing, I also still hear sound.
When I exit the video, it takes a few sec. before I can see the XBMC menu again.

So from my previous comment, it looks like it has something to do with the nvidia drivers.
Now, has Ubuntu some kind of update revert action, so I could go back to the previous version.
Or how can I check what was actually updates?

So I "fixed" it yesterday by downgrading nvidia-current, nvidia-modaliases and nvidia-settings.
All 3 of them had been updated from 280.x to 285.x.
Just to clarify, this is not a XBMC issue, as I saw the same problem on the Ubuntu desktop.
Is there anyone using the latest 285 nvidia drivers, and can confirm if they work?
