I've come to the conclusion the nouveau driver doesn't work with new nvidia
cards as well, as I had to
black list it.
Perhaps we could start a list of Nvidia cards that could cause any kind
of issue with the nouveau driver.
GeForce 7200 GS
Model: "nVidia GeForce 8400 GS"
I use 'nouveau.modeset=0' on the kernel cmdline and also blacklist nouveau.
But note that the latest udev (175-2) removes blacklist.conf, I put it
back again.
What I find if I don't blacklist nouveau is that the nvidia driver gives
an error when starting X.
