Xorg.0.log
This is not a useful report (yet). I'm sorry: I don't know the right terms to
use and this is a hard-to-describe situation.
Nouveau X server comes up but text sometimes doesn't: on my xdm login the
"Welcome to ..." appears, and the Login text, but entering my username the
cursor just moves right and a few (2-3) pixel-sized dots appear where letters
should.
Emacs, with this in .Xdefaults:
Emacs.font: DejaVu Sans Mono-14
...comes up but blank: no menus, no mode bar, no "This buffer is for" in my
*scratch* buffer. Grabbing the windowmanager titlebar and dragging the window
just a pixel or two makes all text appear, until I change virtual desktops and
come back again. Then all text is gone just like the start.
xterms, using:
*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1
...are all fine. No problems ever.
Dell M4800
# d ~ # lspci |grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK106GLM [Quadro
K2100M] (rev a1)
# uname -r
3.16.6-gentoo
Xorg.0.log attached but I doubt it shows anything useful. I have no idea what
*would* be useful but I'd love to offer what I may. I am highly motivated to
use this over the proprietary nvidia driver.
