Since the 10.8.4 update was applied I started getting frequent black screens on restarts, both from sleep (I have hibernate disabled) and full boot. Safe boot would often not work either. Sometimes I could get the screen back but doing sequential SMC and PRAM resets, other times I had to enter into the recovery console. Looking at the logs, there were GPU panics associated with the Nvidia drivers.

I though this might be related to some software I had installed or a corrupted kext file, so did a clean install of 10.8.4. But the problem did not go away.

My computer works fine otherwise, it is not a hardware problem with the Nvidia GPU or logic board.

The issue seems to arise when the computer is powered down (either complete shutdown or sleep) when the Nvidia GPU is active. If the integrated graphics is active on shutdown, there is no problem. Is there a way to force the computer to use integrated graphics upon boot up ?

In the meantime I will make sure the integrated is active before I shut the lid or issue the sleep or shutdown command, using gfxCardStatus.

Here is an error log from a boot to black screen. I have sent this to apple. It never happened before the 10.8.4 update thus believe the bug was introduced with it.
