--- Comment #2 from Lee Matheson <[email protected]> 2011-07-26 06:33:10 PDT --- @ Guido Trentalancia - 'nomodeset' is a boot code that one enters on the options line of the Grub menu in openSUSE, and its use is documented in the openSUSE-11.3 and 11.4 release notes. It typically disables modesetting in the kernel for that boot, and it also forces openSUSE to use the 'nv' driver. To all, I encountered what I believe to be the same problem with the 3.0 RC7 kernel on a 32-bit openSUSE-12.1 milestone-3 on a GeForce FX5200 hardware (which booted the nouveau driver fine with the latest 2.6.39 kernel on Tumbleweed-11.4). Note I also applied the suggested fix on this 32-bit openSUSE-12.1 Milestone-3 with this FX5200 hardware with the 3.0 RC7 kernel as noted in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=707110 installing the specially packaged application drm-nouveau-kmp-desktop by Johannes Obermayr, but that was insufficient. I also had to install the updated xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau also packaged by Johannes Obermayr after which the nouveau driver did work on my FX5200. I documented that in Comment#7 on that https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=707110 thread. So with BOTH packages the nouveau driver works for me on the 3.0 rc7 kernel. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
