[Problem]
Black screen on boot; system otherwise seems to have loaded correctly.
[Original Description]
Using Ubuntu Natty up-to-date on a Dell Vostro 1500 with a GeForce 8600M GT
GPU. When I boot on the LiveCD or on a fresh install, nouveau seems to load
correctly but all I get is a black screen.
On the attached Xorg.log, the lines at 27.960 is when I press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to
see if I can get a tty (I still get a black screen), and 31.965 is when I
Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot the computer.
Note that it kind of works when nVidia proprietary drivers are installed or
when I use nomodeset (it actually uses Vesa instead of Nouveau.
Please let me know if you need additional informations.
