** Summary changed:

- 3d session fails to initialize with nouveau on some GeForce cards
+ 3d session fails to initialize with nouveau on many GeForce cards

** Description changed:

  With the current 3.7.0-2-generic #8-Ubuntu SMP & also the mainline 
3.7.0-030700rc6 both unity & gnome-shell fail to start.
  The greeter screen comes up fine then goes to just the background with a 
cursor. No actions are possible inc. going to a VT.
  After a period of time system logs back out to the greeter. (or a totally 
corrupted greeter
  
  A Classic (no effects) session loads fine, am filing bug from that
  Installing nvidia-* & 3d sessions work fine
  3d sessions also worked fine with nouveau with the previous 3.7.0.0 kernel
  
  On todays current live image the same is seen, attempting "Try Me" goes
  to a blank background image with a cursor, nothing can be done at that
  point
  
  Quite possibly related to this reported kernel bug
