[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 411186] Re: nouveau DRM fails to install
Hi dendron2000, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/) If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: needs-verification ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- nouveau DRM fails to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 411186] Re: nouveau DRM fails to install
Actually, this isn't quite a nouveau bug; the problem here is that the initramfs forcibly loads the i915 driver before pretty much anything else happens. This loads the drm module from the initramfs, which isn't the same version as the one nouveau needs (and is in updates/dkms). When nouveau tries to load, it can't load the newer drm module (because there's one already loaded), and so it fails to load entirely. I _think_ that if you rebuild your initramfs after installing nouveau-kernel-source, then the newer drm module will end up in the initramfs. I'm not sure about this, however. I'm also not sure what else nouveau could do about this; it's really an update-initramfs problem. -- nouveau DRM fails to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Thank you very much, rebuilding initramfs helped. May be it should be included into package post-install script? -- nouveau DRM fails to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
