Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau Version: 1:0.0.15+git20100329+7858345-4 Severity: important
I used to use the nv driver with /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but the X server has started to fail after a recent upgrade. I removed /etc/X11/xorg.conf and rebooted the system. The X server then started and the drive chosen was "nouveau". The problem was that it chose a 1024x768 mode. I couldn't choose a higher resolution from my desktop environment (LXDE). The native resoluton of my monitor is 1280x1024 (Sony SDM-HS95). So, I had to revert to the original xorg.conf and an older kernel (linux-image-2.6.32-3-686) because the nv driver fails to load under the latest one (linux-image-2.6.32-5-686) with (EE) NV: Kernel Modesetting driver in use, refusing to load (EE) No devices detected Regards, Ryo -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-video-nouveau depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdrm-nouveau1 2.4.18-6 Userspace interface to nouveau-spe ii xserver-xorg-core [xorg-video 2:1.7.7-3 Xorg X server - core server xserver-xorg-video-nouveau recommends no packages. xserver-xorg-video-nouveau suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
