[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 522588] Re: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user
The fallback session should be displaying the EE log errors to the user, if they end up in that failsafe mode. I think that's the right place to hook in any workaround options like this. ** Package changed: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) = xdiagnose (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xdiagnose in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522588 Title: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdiagnose/+bug/522588/+subscriptions ___ 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

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 522588] Re: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user
Hello Tim, I have an nVidia 8600 GTS and it hasn't any power connector, so the driver checking for it gets the error. I'm able to make it working adding Option = NoPowerConnectorCheck on xorg.conf. But the real bug is, IMHO, that without this option the 2d fallback doesn't works and it doesn't show any error message to the user. The only way to find it is logging in with a different tty and checking into the logs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522588 Title: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user ___ 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

Paolo, Do you have the nVidia 8600 GT instead of the GTS? I have an nVidia 8600 GTS and it has a power cable attachment, just like what is seen in the top picture here: http://www.anandtech.com/show/2213/4 I have been able to get the drivers to work fine (As you would expect seeing as I do have a separate power cable and it is plugged in) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522588 Title: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user ___ 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

Hello Martin! Thanks for spending time with this bug. Please note that in this bug the fallback driver doesn't work and all we get it's a dark screen. Changing termina with ALT F1, F2 you get the textual login. Do you think it would be possibile to have the fallback to the free driver? For any test or whatever check you would need just ask me :) Thanks in advance! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522588 Title: Ensure that X.org startup failure displays (EE) messages to the user ___ 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
