Blempis, 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 Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding. Helpful bug reporting tips: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (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/1069047 Title: Xorg freeze Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: First of all, sorry that the given information is little bit missleading, but I didn't have a change to report properly because several reasons. However, I still believe I can give you enough information what it the problem, why it is crucial to fix it and what kind of users fill encounter this problem so that you can give them a out of box user experience. So, the main problem at hand is as follows: It is not possible to install or upgrade on this system you collected information from This includes upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04 and the fresh installation of 12.04 , 12.04.1 and 12.10. (Well, perhaps one could say that upgrade succeeded, but the new system got frozen.) OpenSuse 12.2 installed succesfully but only the offered safe mode worked. One crucial thing to note is that this problem at hand is clearly invisible to your current bug monitoring system/method. Launhcpad involves more than 100 000 bugs so you have hard time even to follow it. So, it seems that you don't get data when something goes terribly wrong in upgrades and fresh installs, do you? I do have a Android phone (Samsung Galaxy Gio) and I use it all the time when connecting my desktop to internet. I don't have any other device modem what so ever for that purpose. I don't know if this relevant from the point of solving this issue but considered it is worth reporting separately. The problem is related to Nvidia Gtx 580. Installing Ubuntu 12.10 leads to crash. It happens when I try to select language. Then the system reports about pfipo goes into loop trying to recover but failing and it gives some magnified parts of the previous installing screen. Those parts are not in any order. The screen is not readable and mouse hangs. Solution? Installing nvidia packets by apt would be fine but that option is not available. It is possible to get the livemode if the preferred language is not selected rather than just pressing enter. However, live mode is not working while mouse is not responsing nor is keybord. How the heck did I manage to install Ubuntu 12.04 to this darn machine?! Well, after that explanation you and I share the most well deserved feeling of ashame. First I changed back my old work horse Gts 250 and installed the 12.04. Then I installed offered drivers for that and rebooted. After that (as I rememer it right) I downloaded drivers suitable for Gtx 580 and shut down the machine. Removed Gts 250 and replaced the Gtx 580 to the system and the system finally booted as it should. Your part of solution: Make sure that the command line is available even before Ubuntu desktops starts up. Also make sure that the system can find internet and use apt-sources even if there is no modem available. Some of us use Androids.
