Well, this hasn't been a good afternoon for me. While struggling with a new install of openSUSE 11.3, I found out that it couldn't work with audio CD's, so I decided to try a trial copy of Ubuntu 10.4. This is on a 64 bit Athlon 3200+ system (ECS GF6100 M754 v1 mobo) and a GF8400RS PCIx video card to support the new digital 1080p mode for the new large screen 16x9 monitors.
After installing Ubuntu, and having a dual boot grub so I can choose either openSUSE or Ubuntu on boot, I cannot get the card to come up in digital mode at all. The only output is VGA. Do I assume correctly that something is wrong with the "nouveau" module? This is the new kernel module that is supposed to drive the new digital displays. I really would like to get the digital mode working. Do I completely scrub my 319 Gig hard drive and start over? I've already used up several days here trying to get the new system working. So any suggestions? Randall _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
