Did any of you manage to get the nvidia driver working? It doesn't need to have output to the screen, just xorg needs to start and detect nvidia. The nvd7 is a card we haven't seen before, and it's a surprise it worked at all.
If the binary driver works, it could be made to work on nouveau correctly. Just get on freenode irc, go to the #nouveau channel and ping me there, and I can help you get us the information we need. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1142733 Title: Nvidia: unknown chipset Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Fedora: New Bug description: OS: Ubuntu OS version: 13.04 Architecture: x84_64 On boot the system shows this message: [ 10.893362] nouveau I [ DEVICE] [0000:01:00.0] unknown Feral chipset [ 10.893436] nouveau E [ DEVICE] [0000:01:00.0] unknown chipset, 0x0d7000a2 [ 10.893506] nouveau E [ DRM] failed to create 0x80000080, -22 After that, the system starts apparently without problems.
