Title:
  nouveau hangs during boot of life system, prevents installation

Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When trying to boot a life system from a usb key the system seems to
  boot normally but the screen turns completely white after about a
  minute and stays in this state. Pressing the up/down keys triggers a
  short burst of disk activity, otherwise the system seems to be idle.

  It is possible to switch to the console with ctrl-alt-f1. At the end
  of /var/log/syslog I found many lines in the following form:

  [drm] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: PFIFO_CACHE_ERROR - Ch 2/2 Mthd 0x0800
  Data 0x00000000

  The value after Mthd seems to change - I'll try to copy a sample
  tonight and attach it to the report.

  The system is a Samsung R580 laptop, the graphics controller is
  reported to be a NVIDIA GT218 [GeForce 310M]
