Thomas Epalle, 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, please just make a comment to this. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-223 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067085 Title: Nomodeset required on asus G75VW Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Nomodeset option is required to boot Ubuntu 12.04.1 on asus G75VW laptop (core i7-3610QM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 670M, 6GB RAM, with preinstalled Windows 7 (initial thread in French: http://forum.ubuntu- fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=11135241#p11135241 ) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-31-generic 3.2.0-31.50 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-31.50-generic 3.2.28 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-31-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
