Carla Sella, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, 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 xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

I have nouveau drivers installed and I have a Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS graphics card. I had 1440x900 resolution when I just booted to the 3.5.0-6.6 kernel. I tried changing various resolutions and they all worked, but when I tried to get back to 1440x900 I got a black screen. Could not do anything. I had to reboot pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL, not even CTRL+ALT+F1 displayed anything on my video. After rebooting into 3.5.0-6.6 kernel I got resolution 1366x768, the last one chosen, I tried to change to 1440x900 again and I got a black screen again, couldn't do anything but reboot. This time I rebooted into 3.2.0-26 kernel and found resolution 1440x900 without having to change it. I rebooted again into kernel 3.5.0-6.6 and the resolution was 1440x900. If I change resolution and try to go back to 1440x900 on kernel 3.5.0-6.6 I get a black screen and can't do anything. This is my hardware: http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/CarlaSella/lshw.
