It seems you're running quantal with the wrong nouveau driver. The nouveau driver you're running is the xorg-edgers version for precise. So, switch to xorg-edgers for quantal and if that doesn't solve your problem then purge xorg-edgers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a

@dino99 vblank only works for some nvidia graphic cards (not mine) but worth testing as a workaround. I guess .udeb packages exist in the repos but not visible as those are special stripped ditto packages for special use to save ram. The kernel uses those instead of the more memory consuming
