I'm replying to both debian-x and debian-devel, but I am only subscribed to debian-devel. If you post only to debian-x, please CC me. If nouveau set KMS by default, as the intel driver does, but did not *require* KMS, I would agree. But the last time I checked, using the nouveau driver *forces* KMS. I don't like that. I still use, and prefer, hardware text mode virtual consoles (1-6). Because of that, I still use nv. That's the *only* reason that I still use nv. There is no bug number here because I'm sure that upstream would consider this a feature and not a bug. In other words, they would consider operation of the driver with KMS off an enhancement request. -- .''`.
