[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 596402] Re: Nouveau driver works horrible on Nvidia Geforce2

2010-07-12 Thread Willem Dreyer
Think I've got the same problem, I will edit grub ASAP. Using nouveau as my driver I tested the following: Normal Lucid: System hang after startx. Lucid with "xorg-edgers" PPA: System hang after startx. Lucid with "xorg-edgers" and "kernel-ppa" PPAs: System hang after startx and in recovery mode

Hi, After testing again today on lucid with xorg-edgers ppa I'm now getting something similar to this (one step backwards): http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/TroubleShooting#Xorgfailstostartwith.22.28EE.29.5Bdrm.5Dfailedtoopendevice.22 I believe it's because my nouveau driver only works on 2.6.3

@papukaija Thanks @sacevedo: Your xorg.conf and lspci shows you're using nvidia proprietary drivers, with regards to that see http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ODQyNQ it's the latest info I found. Furthermore you may want to try the FIRST step of http://duopetalflower.blogspot.com
