        <div>
        <pre>After installing the Nvidia drivers in XFdrake, users get a black screen after
rebooting the system. 

Solution working for me:
1. Go to a tty (Ctrl + Alt + F2)
2. Create a backup of xorg.conf (Generated after installing driver in XFdrake)
-- mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.back
3. Remove the current xorg.conf -- rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
4. Generate a new xorg.conf by running: nvidia-xconfig as root
5. Reboot the system

So I assume, the xorg.conf generated by XFdrake is wrong, and should be updated
to the same as generated by nvidia-xconfig.</pre>
