This is completely unrelated to this bug. 'nomodeset' effectively prevents nouveau from loading, hiding the issue. This bug is about nouveau in Precise kernel (well, for other reasons in Oneiric too), not about the Nvidia blob. 'nomodeset' has no effect on the Nvidia proprietary driver, because it doesn't support kernel based mode setting anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969121 Title: Cannot boot Live CD with Nvidia GTX 550Ti To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux-kernel-headers/+bug/969121/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
