  I can't boot Ubuntu 10.10 on my PC with NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 (PCIe 16x). 
Instead login screen I see [attachment DSC00391.JPG].
  Ctrl+Alt+Del and SysRq+B don't work.

  Why Ubuntu use experimental (nouveau) driver?!? :
  xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver 
(experimental)

  WORKAROUND: 
  I must install Ubuntu from alternate CD and boot to text mode and uninstall 
these packages: nouveau-firmware, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and install 
nvidia-current package.

  WORKAROUND: Try boot live cd with "nomodeset" option. It works for me
  on GeForce GT 240.

This is fixed in Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet.  You might still
experience some flickering - the upstream developers are still working
on that.

Actually, forget about testing this on Utopic.  It was released too soon
to incorporate the patch in comment #69.  The patch is in the 3.18
kernel.

Please test the 3.18.1 mainline kernel available at
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and report back here.
Instructions on how to install and uninstall it are available at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds

In most of the modern distros by default is loading nouveau for nvidia

on all known keys (example, Alt+SysRq+B). Logs was clear with 0 bytes.
Problem was solved by change card for an older nvidia 9x00 and
installing proprietary driver. After changing card was all fine. Card
was checked for problems with some tests, all were passed.

Yes, this is quite annoying.
I recall I upgraded Ubuntu and rebooted only to encounter this hang.
I can't even boot up some of the live CDs (Ubuntu, Linux Mint, ...) without 
bypassing nouveau.
I've switched back to the proprietary driver and everything is fine.
But we need to get to the bottom of this.

The nouveau driver does not appear to provide acceleration (at least for
the moment) with GT240 cards.  You can get X to start, however, by using

Option NoAccel true

In your X config.

It is painfully slow though, so the only real option is to use the
proprietary NVidia driver.

The KMS/Nouveau framebuffer works as well, but again without
acceleration, I have a copy of the dmesg output as it loads the driver
and will upload if it will be useful; I guess the devs know of this
issue with GT240's though.

Also following up on your mailinglist post:
there is no general problem with nouveau and nv92, which is one of the most 
common chipsets and works without problems for the most of us.

So you have to be more specific about what problems you do encounter in
order to get real help.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 763052] Re: Ubuntu can't boot on nvidia GeForce GT240 with nouveau drivers

2013-08-17 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
tuxmartin, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, 
but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, 
please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is 
fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.
