Graham, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu Saucy Salamander? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (v3.10-rc3-saucy) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the kernel in the mainline kernels archive directory daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10-rc3 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: latest-bios-a07 ** Tags removed: kernel-bug-exists-upstream-v3.7-rc1-quantal ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream-v3.7-rc1 ** Attachment removed: "xorg conf file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068601/+attachment/3579962/+files/xorg.conf ** Attachment removed: "x start log file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068601/+attachment/3579939/+files/Xorg.0.log ** Attachment removed: "syslog" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068601/+attachment/3579961/+files/syslog ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- 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/1068601 Title: 10de:0322 12.10: Black screen with GeForce FX 5200 card Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Having installed Ubuntu 12.10, a black screen now appears after logon (only the cursor is visible). Everything (graphically) up until logon is fine. On my previous build (12.04), I was using Nvidia's drivers. As well, this did not happen with the nouveau drivers either. WORKAROUND: This seems to be a problem with my Nvidia FX5200 graphics card as when I removed this and used the integrated graphics (Intel 82865G) instead, everything was fine. WORKAROUND: Using the following kernel parameters gets me to the desktop but the OS is very unresponsive: nomodeset --- ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: graham 1720 F.... pulseaudio CRDA: country GB: (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5250 - 5330 @ 40), (N/A, 20), DFS (5490 - 5710 @ 40), (N/A, 27), DFS DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=bd714dd8-b111-42c1-88b5-0b32b12b0bff InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-10-19 (6 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release i386 (20121017.2) MachineType: Dell Computer Corporation OptiPlex GX270 MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 nouveaufb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic root=UUID=f4138a35-ef8f-4c93-a963-09e6b2ae85e3 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.28-generic 3.5.5 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.5.0-17-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.5.0-17-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.95 RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no Tags: quantal running-unity Uname: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo dmi.bios.date: 06/26/2006 dmi.bios.vendor: Dell Computer Corporation dmi.bios.version: A07 dmi.board.name: 0FG015 dmi.board.vendor: Dell Computer Corp. dmi.chassis.type: 6 dmi.chassis.vendor: Dell Computer Corporation dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnDellComputerCorporation:bvrA07:bd06/26/2006:svnDellComputerCorporation:pnOptiPlexGX270:pvr:rvnDellComputerCorp.:rn0FG015:rvr:cvnDellComputerCorporation:ct6:cvr: dmi.product.name: OptiPlex GX270 dmi.sys.vendor: Dell Computer Corporation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068601/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
