[Bug 220469]
Nobody is supporting xf86-video-nv and it will be going away at some point in the future. If your problem persists with nouveau or the proprietary driver provided by nVidia, please re-file accordingly. We apologize for the inconvenience. This is part of an automated bulk action; if you believe that this bug was closed in error, then change the targeted component and reopen it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220469 Title: nv driver gives grainy/blurred output GF FX Go 5200 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/220469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 220469] Re: nv driver gives grainy/blurred output GF FX Go 5200
Thank you for reporting this issue about xserver-xorg-video-nv. Starting with Lucid, Ubuntu is transitioning to using the -nouveau video driver by default instead of -nv. The reason for this change is because upstream development for the -nv driver has been quite slow. We are quite pleased with the upstream development speed for -nouveau, and hope this will translate into swifter bug fixes as well. Because of this, I'm closing this bug report at this time. I'm marking it wontfix because what you describe is probably a valid issue, but we do not have further plans to work on it in Ubuntu. If you would still like to see this issue investigated, I would encourage you to file it upstream at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Won't Fix -- nv driver gives grainy/blurred output GF FX Go 5200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220469 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this problem; the 16bpp workaround works but that's not a solution (at least for me) because seems to be slower than 24/32bpp. (nvidia break suspend also on my amd64 system). -- nv driver gives grainy/blurred output GF FX Go 5200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220469 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nv My display is Grainy / Blurrred / Distorted with nv driver on hardy RC at 1024x768. I will upload an image The display looks like it has been 'greyed out' in a windows 95 style (except the cursor looks fine) What I mean by this: the text looks a bit like it has had a layer of dots placed over it and so it is hard to read - it gives a blurred and grainy appearance. Some things I noted: 1. See the attached screenshot from when using the driver and compare it with the photo of the screen 2. The cursor renders fine 3. 800x600 resolution looks fine This is on a Samsung X10 with an nvidia GeForce FX Go 5200 64mb. Other people seem to have had this working on other distros in the past. I am using 8.04 daily build from 20th April The vesa and nvidia drivers can do this fine at all resolutions. The nv driver looks fine at 800x600 but terrible at 1024x768.

Reducing color depth to 16bpp works around this issue.
