Title:
Enabling HWE Stack in precise broke my system
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Dell D800 Pentium M 1400 - video pci id 0x0286 nv28m nvidia-96 mandatory
(broken nouveau)
I ran sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-trusty xserver-xorg-lts-trusty
which began removing nvidia96 and xserver-xorg-core then failed to install
the 3.13.0-45 kernel
I had to add forcepae option to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub AND
force the pae flag to show in /proc/cpuinfo this way:
~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | sed 's/flags\t*:/& pae/' > /tmp/cpuinfo_pae
~$ sudo mount -o bind /tmp/cpuinfo_pae /proc/cpuinfo
~$ sudo mount -o remount,ro,bind /proc/cpuinfo
so that after sudo update-grub and reboot I could have
linux-generic-lts-trusty to install OK.
However nvidia-96 fails to reinstall and the system is just OK for
booting in tty lowgraphics mode.
