Public bug reported: Nouveau blacklisting fails when /usr is on seperate partition.
cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf blacklist nouveau blacklist lbm-nouveau blacklist nvidia-173 blacklist nvidia-96 alias nvidia nvidia-current File exists as above and 'update-initramfs -u' was run. System fails to blacklist nouveau and as a result nvidia drivers are unable to claim the device and boot. This is clearly some type of race condition with upstart and not being able to access /usr/lib at time of boot. A temporary fix was to modify and include 'and local-filesystems' to the start line. This seems to slow down the boot process, but the driver was blacklisted. /etc/init/udev.conf start on virtual-filesystems and local-filesystems ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Nouveau blacklisting with /usr on seperate partition fails (Lucid Alpha3) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538071 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
