[Bug 713864] Re: Black screen with nouveau on a GeForce 8600M GT, either LiveCD or fresh install
Mathieu Marquer, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Natty reached EOL on October 2012. Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases We were wondering if this is still an issue in a supported release? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . 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 let us know your results.

This seems to be fixed for me. The only big problem now is plymouth is totally broken, but that's probably related to bug #713088 or some other issue.

Hey slasher-fun, You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade and re-test if this issue is still present there. If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll close it.) If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713864 Title: Black screen with nouveau on a GeForce 8600M GT, either LiveCD or fresh install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/713864/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this on natty with 2.6.38-8-generic-pae (Dell XPS M1530, GeFore 8600M GT). The proprietary driver works fine. Incidentally this made the upgrade process from maverick to natty very difficult, as for some reason it tried to enable nouveau even though I had the proprietary drivers installed. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713864 Title: Black screen with nouveau on a GeForce 8600M GT, either LiveCD or fresh install -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Mathieu, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

I still get a black screen when removing quiet splah and adding vesafb.anything=1 as kernel parameters.

Try booting with the vesafb.anything=1 kernel parameter.
