I also have a 5920g with Nvidia 8600m GT. My video card has not been working since kernel 2.6.32, I had to use the pci=bios directive in grub (see bug 661248). Even so it seldomly hangs at boot time.
@Marco Trevisan : how did you manage to update the bios? The bios installer on the ACER website works only in Windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1310406 Title: [regression] Trusty kernel doesn't recognize GeForce 8600m GT nor with nouveau or nvidia drivers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1310406/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
