[Bug 413439] Re: karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200
Thank you for reporting this issue about xserver-xorg-video-nv. Starting with Lucid, Ubuntu is transitioning to using the -nouveau video driver by default instead of -nv. The reason for this change is because upstream development for the -nv driver has been quite slow. We hope bugs will get fixed faster with -nouveau as well. Because of this, I'm closing this bug report at this time. I'm marking it wontfix because what you describe is probably a valid issue, but we do not have intentions to work on it in Ubuntu. If you would still like to see this issue investigated, I would encourage you to file it upstream. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix -- karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 413439] Re: karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200
It does indeed break with version 3 and the old, minimal xorg.conf. And, it works with the nv3 and no xorg.conf (and with nv4 and no xorg.conf). But unfortunately, with the old xorg.conf, nv4 still breaks.

[Bug 413439] Re: karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200
Ok, if ubuntu3 is working for you, then we don't really have a confirmed bug here at this point. Marking incomplete. One difference I notice in the old vs. new logs is that there's no mention of an /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the new log - so maybe the autodetection doesn't work when you have an xorg.conf, even when you're not explicitly specifying a driver. Can you confirm that on the new karmic install, you don't have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? Can you test whether re-adding this config file breaks video for you again with ubuntu3, and whether upgrading again to the ppa ubuntu4 fixes it? If you don't have a copy of the xorg.conf anymore, there's a copy buried in http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32931149/apport.xorg.7Rwbpw.apport - let me know if you want me to extract it for you. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Both ..ubuntu3 and 4 work, I've attached the log from 3 as you requested.

Well, 2.1.14-2ubuntu3 is definitely the version of the nv driver package that we had in karmic beta. Can you show the Xorg.0.log from this successful run with -2ubuntu3 installed?

[Bug 413439] Re: karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200
Something's working - I installed Karmic beta from disk, but before doing the reboot I added Steve's .ppa to my repository, downloaded and sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-nv_2.1.14-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb I rebooted sans CD and it came up fine. I rebooted again, still fine. I installed synaptic and looked at what was installed, it wasn't version 4, but version 3 (the old, non-working one I thought)! I don't understand, I could see version 4 staying in effect for one reboot (then apparently getting replaced by the old one), but, it wouldn't happen only on the 2nd time . Ie, it doesn't look like the new .ubuntu4 .deb is in effect, yet it's working. I'm in the midst of updating, I've got the ...ubuntu4 .deb handy just in case for the next reboot, I'm not sure what happened but overall something's right. Let me know what you need as proof that it's working (and proof that that was the problem, maybe). -- karmic alpha 4's xorg 'nv' driver does not handle Nvidia 8200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
