Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
When trying to boot the LiveCD, or an Ubuntu 10.10 installation upgraded from 10.04, the computer completely freezes. I can get in by adding nomodeset to the boot options. After installing the proprietary nVidia driver, everything works as expected. I've tested this with both 10.10, and the latest daily of 11.04. This is the same as a bug I reported earlier, bug #632231, but since that one got off-track I've marked it as invalid, and submitted this report with what I hope is a clearer description of the bug, and hope to have a good cooperation and get it solved.
