Title:
Need upgrading for nv110 (maxwell gtx 750)
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Testcase:
i was succesfully using that driver with an old 8500gt nvidia card plugged
within vga.
Upgrading to a new gtx 750 card plugged within hdmi 1.3, nouveau cant be used
because the bios process is stopped at:
" fb: conflicting fb hw usage nouveaufb ... "
So to support that gtx750 card, i've installed nvidia 334.21 from joe-
yasi/xorg-related ppa, and blacklisted vga16fb, nvidiafb, rivafb and
rivatv inside /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file. Note that the
actual Trusty archive only propose the 331 driver, so adding the 334
asap should be a good move too.
Results about these tweaks:
- the display is usable, but, the displayed font quality is worst than before
(it was superb) ; (mesa was also update to 10.2, so maybe related ?)
- the lcd display is a 22" 1920x1080, but it is found as a 42" 1920x1080 by
both the kernel and nvidia (nouveau was working fine with the 8500 gt). So i
need to downsized now to 1680 to get the menu/topbar/buttons; otherwise they
are not seen.
To resume:
- need "nouveau" working with nv110 family
- need 334.21 driver added to archive
