OK - so I feel stupid now - sorry for all the repeated comments. I apparently needed a new kernel to get this to work, not the blacklist I mentioned above. Bug #518387 talks about a new kernel being worked on that clears up some KMS issues (I think). I added the kernel from the PPA mentioned at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/518387/comments/2 and now I have working Nouveau on all the different bootable drives I have running Ubuntu 10.04.
Also, for anybody who is moving from the original nvidia proprietary drivers, I had to backup my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, then do a sudo Xorg -configure before moving the ~/xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11 It seems to work, even though X seems to consume a lot of CPU now when anything on screen moves. -- nouveau does not work with nVidia G94 [Quadro FX 1800] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/546359 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
