David Barri, 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, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 952574] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 beta 1 won't boot off USB key with NVidia GTX 560
I would like to confirm that this problem also has affected me with my Nvidia GTX 460 card since Ubuntu 11.04 as well as just a couple weeks ago with 12.04 desktop 64 bit. I've come to accept that there are certain loops and hoops I have to jump through to complete an installation, however Im afraid that this problem alone is going to be a huge hurdle in your accomplishing a resolution to your stated issue #1 as many people have Nvidia cards and if I weren't a quite advanced developer type user, along with quite stubborn, I would never have even installed the product at all. I can confirm that when starting up with an installation disk on a system with an Nvidia GTX card the screen goes to black with a blinking cursor top left. If you quickly hit the F6 key then this avoids the black cursor blinking issue and allows you to see the menu with installation options. If you then also, after choosing English, press F6 and select nomodeset you can get the installation to complete, however upon system load the screen is just the pretty pink tones and then nothing, no log in, nothing. Choosing the safe mode option from grub to log into will allow a person to many error messages referring to nouveau. The only way I could find that can then successfully get you in to make changes is to: Choose the option to go to a command prompt then sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nvidia-current startx Then, opening the additional drivers interface ensure I am using the nvidia driver and restart. I am not sure if I forgot anything in that last list of steps, its been a couple of weeks, but I believe that is it. I found that combination of answers by reading solutions posted on many places on the internet and taking some notes and trying things. I don't think you'll get alot of people reporting this problem though as most people who are able to solve it are likely going to be people like me who are good problem solvers and enjoy the challenge and have used ubuntu before. Anyone new and without that deeper understanding is likely to just throw the disk in the trash and wonder why anyone would every use that because it is just a black screen with a blinking cursor. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952574 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 beta 1 won't boot off USB key with NVidia GTX 560 Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello. So, booting off a USB of the 12.04 beta 1 image, it simply fails to load with my new graphics card (GTX 560). What happens is that both my monitors are completely blank; one is off completely, the other is on but the whole screen is black there is a single cursor that just blinks forever. After much googling, I discovered that I could get it to boot if I hit f6 on startup and select nomodeset. There's still a problem though.

Additionally, if you get a solution and want a tester I am available to help test it and have an extra one terrabytes of a second partition on this 3Gb/s sata disk to play with and another 1T 6 Gb/s sata disk to test installing to as well... though I've never successfully installed to one of my 6g/s disks, I'm not sure if it was this issue on that or another as I settled in on my 3 G/s disk for ubuntu long ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952574 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 beta 1 won't boot off USB key with NVidia GTX 560 Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello.
