Hello everyone.
I set up the above mentioned driver according to
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/319.12/README/randr14.html
The configuration is correct, xrandr reports both providers, setting the provider output source works and X goes up as expected using kdm. However, the screen remains blank, though the backlight remains active. There are no errors.
ASUS X53S
Ubuntu 13.04 completely up to date
Kernels 3.8.0-16 and 3.9.0-rc6
Intel Core i5-2410M
NVIDIA GT540M
Any clues? TIA!

I'm getting the same blank, backlit screen. X will start without complaining, run programs invisibly and glxinfo will report Nvidia, but there's nothing on the LVDS or HDMI.
Unity and other DEs will try to load, but report framebuffer errors.
Providers for Nvidia and modesetting (or Intel, I've tested both) report properly.

Perhaps not the same as what you both are attempting, but give Bumblebee a shot:
[url]http://bumblebee-project.org/[/url]
And because I see you're both on Ubuntu 13.04, probably with the affected xorg package, you'll need this fix to get it working:
[url]https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/367#issuecomment-16094317[/url]
Why would we [i]return[/i] to Bumblebee when there's the prospect of native support? O_o
Maybe it's kernel issue. LLStarks, do you have proper support for the Intel GPU with 3.9RC6? In my case there seem to be issues at least with GLX.
Why would it be a kernel issue? Sandybridge has been fully supported for over 2 years now.
Has anyone else tried using Intel instead modesetting?
I'm going to try both with VGA (HDMI has only mirrored the tty) later today.
I have the same problem, adding bug report file [url]http://www.hot.ee/wingleader/nvidia-bug-report.log.gz[/url]
Blank screen with backlight and nothing more happening.
OS: OpenSuSE 12.3 x64
Xserver: 1.14
Xrand: 1.4
Kernel version: 3.8.6
CPU: Icore7 3-rd gen.
GPU: Geforce 630M GT
So what the problem could be?

You need 3.9 kernel
@LLStarks
Thats nice, but would you mind posting your logs here too, so everybody gets more information who is interested? You might want to read the forums sticky:"2) Please always include a copy of an nvidia-bug-report.log.gz file,.."
@stylertim
Since LLstarks bugreport is aaron-only, could you please load up yours? I am interested in a bugreport on a correctly configured Ubuntu machine.

[edit] Solved, didn't follow directions.
I have the same blank display issue.
I can run programs.. output of xrandr

Our BusIDs are properly set up.
