Figured out that it is the internal GFX (intel i915) interacting with the PCI-E (Nouveau). I can prevent this happening on the installed system (10.04 + 2.6.38) but killing/renaming the i915 module. At which point it boots through to X. -- $ cd /lib/modules/2.6.38-020638rc8-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/ $ sudo mv i915.ko i915.ko_hide --
Not sure how to achieve the same with a LiveCD. Suggestions? I am unable to disable the onboard GFX in the BIOS, Simon. ** Summary changed: - Natty Alpha3: Nvidia GeoForce8400 Crash on Boot + Natty Alpha3: Nvidia GeForce8400 + i915 = Crash on Boot -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/741434 Title: Natty Alpha3: Nvidia GeForce8400 + i915 = Crash on Boot -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
