Public bug reported:
Hi all,
I'm a ubuntu fan for few years now.
I've installed lucid since day one upgrading from karmik and so on.
Today i have downloaded from the snapshot server Lucid Lynx Alpha 3
(10-03-2010) and the nice shinny installer, my laptop hangs.
i managed to install using nomodeset kern boot param.
I was used to have a bug were i would have to go through gdm twice
because the first time gdm hangs but with this new brew it takes twice
to three times to get to my session.
I have updated the gfx through jockey-gtk to nvidia-current but still
the same issue.
i would love to have the dkms stuff going on with my nvidia 9200M G (
reported by nvidia-settings as GeForce 9200M G)
I shall give you a description of the hardware:
MSI VR705

I have been following this new release from day 1 and using it for
production ( even if i have taken the bet believing that ubuntu will not
disappoint me as it used to do in the past)
Please let me know if you need further details, i do know that nouveau is still
under heavy dev cycle but please do not make it
as if nvidia 8200M G are not existing as most of the new users are using this
kind of ION embedded chipset including mac users.
Best regards,
Rafik
