[Bug 758674] Re: nvidia-current 270.30 claims 8600M GT is not supported
This bug affects me to. I have PC at work and notebook at home. I use 11.04 at work and try to report every bug that I see, but at home I have to use 10.04 because of this driver. It's killing me, there are a lot of changes since 10.04 that I like but couldn't use at home. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/758674 Title: nvidia-current 270.30 claims 8600M GT is not supported -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Updated to 270.41.03 from the X Updates PPA, it still results in the same problem. Disabling vesafb also made no difference. I’ve done some research myself and found this thread in the nv forums: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=134271 It suggests the pci addresses are somehow messed up. The suggested fix (# setpci -s 01:00.0 BASE_ADDRESS_0=0xf200) makes me able to modprobe nvidia-current, but restarting gdm leaves me with no graphics at all (I was able to navigate the console and reboot blindly) These ubuntu bugs may be related: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/661248 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/661394 It was working perfectly for me with maverick (x64) (+ all updates) and broke with natty (I moved to x86 this time). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/758674 Title: nvidia-current 270.30 claims 8600M GT is not supported -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Alberto, this may be worth showing to NVIDIA, unless you know why the kernel module would be failing to recognize this hardware as supported. @Arpad, please install xdiagnose, and test if disabling the VESA framebuffer driver (and rebooting) makes any difference. (I'm guessing it won't, but it's my only hunch so far.) ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/758674 Title: nvidia-current 270.30 claims 8600M GT is not supported -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
