[solved] NVIDIA 346.35-3 breaks TTY console displays.

I have a GeForce 970, I am using GRUB with GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep, and my kernel is booting into 1920x1200 mode. Since upgrading to NVIDIA 346.35-3 my TTY consoles all become garbled and unreadable once X has started, but they are unaffected before X starts.

Downgrading to NVIDIA 343.36-6 solves this issue. There isn't any output in the journal. When I switch to a TTY, my monitor reports that it's in 640x480 mode.

Example:

Anyone else having these problems?

I have a GTX 970 and the my TTY consoles are Ok. But I did not set a boot resolution.

Hi,

I also confirm the behavior with 2x GTX 970 SLI + Base Mosaic Mode and Nvidia 346.35-6.

Hope this get fixed soon. Or we find a workaround for that issue.
