>From dmidecode: Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes System Information Manufacturer: HP-Pavilion Product Name: FQ578AAR-ABA s3707c Version: Serial Number: MXW9050KY9 UUID: F0FCF263-2B51-DE11-83CF-912A047DBC6A Wake-up Type: Power Switch SKU Number: FQ578AAR#ABA Family: 103C_53316J -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1132766 Title: modesetting fails; no signal to monitor Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Upon booting(live CD), as soon as modesetting kicks in, the monitor loses the signal and goes black. Cannot switch to a VT, but keyboard does appear to be active, as Ctl-Alt-Del will cause a reboot. Booting with nomodeset works; I expect it to work with modesetting, too. . I'm seeing the identical problem with Fedora Rawhide (what will be F19) when using version 3.8 or 3.9 kernels. I tried a version 3.8 kernel with a working F18 installation, and same problem, so it's not something new in Xorg or the nouveau driver, but how they interact with the newer kernels. No problems with version 3.7 or earlier kernels. *-pci:1 description: PCI bridge product: MCP78S [GeForce 8200] PCI Express Bridge vendor: NVIDIA Corporation physical id: b bus info: pci@0000:00:0b.0 version: a1 width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: pci normal_decode bus_master cap_list resources: ioport:e000(size=4096) memory:fd000000-fe9fffff ioport:e6000000(size=167772160) *-display UNCLAIMED description: VGA compatible controller product: C78 [GeForce 9100] vendor: NVIDIA Corporation physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:02:00.0 version: a2 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: vga_controller bus_master cap_list configuration: latency=0 resources: memory:fd000000-fdffffff memory:e8000000-efffffff memory:e6000000-e7ffffff ioport:ec00(size=128) memory:fe9e0000-fe9fffff ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: linux-image-3.8.0-7-generic 3.8.0-7.15 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-7.15-generic 3.8.0 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-7-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.8-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: lubuntu 6475 F.... lxpanel CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'iw' CasperVersion: 1.330 Date: Mon Feb 25 05:37:57 2013 LiveMediaBuild: Lubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Alpha i386 (20130223) MachineType: HP-Pavilion FQ578AAR-ABA s3707c MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: ProcKernelCmdLine: noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true file=/cdrom/preseed/username.seed boot=casper persistent initrd=/casper/initrd.lz nomodeset-- nomodeset RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.8.0-7-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.8.0-7-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.103 RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no SourcePackage: linux UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 02/17/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 5.12 dmi.board.name: NutMeg dmi.board.vendor: PEGATRON CORPORATION dmi.board.version: 1.02 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr5.12:bd02/17/2009:svnHP-Pavilion:pnFQ578AAR-ABAs3707c:pvr:rvnPEGATRONCORPORATION:rnNutMeg:rvr1.02:cvnHewlett-Packard:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: FQ578AAR-ABA s3707c dmi.sys.vendor: HP-Pavilion To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1132766/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
