Here's what I get from nouveua in dmesg now: $ dmesg | grep -i nouveau [ 7.913030] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 7.913033] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 7.913037] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0006 -> 0007) [ 7.913044] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 [ 7.913048] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 8.333513] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Unsupported chipset 0xffffffff [ 8.334652] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A disabled [ 8.334658] nouveau: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -22 Happy to close this bug and re-open a vanilla nouveau issue if required. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770650 Title: nouveau fails to recognise nvidia chipset in MSI GE620/FX620DX laptop, causes suspend/resume failures -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
