Hello guys,
i've decided to test nouveau driver and installed it recently from
official repos. My videocard is GeForce 4 with additional S-video and
Composite outputs, 64 MB of memory. I installed xubuntu, and tried to
use nouveau driver instead of official nvidia's. After switching driver,
the boot splash xubuntu logo turned into poor coloured low-resolutioned
one, but X loaded normally. Xfce worked fine, but i decided to try LXDE
with SLiM login manager.
So, here's bugs:
1) X server is loading normally, but when i try to switch to virtual
terminal (Ctrl-Fx) my monitor shows me "Out of range" message,
keyboard
and mouse are switching off too and it makes me to reboot pc to get
back.
2) When i trying to boot into kernel single mode, my root console does
not show the characters i typing, but generally it works, with the need
of double-entered confirmation.
3) Corrupted colors! Especially black - i see a set of random sized huge
gray pixels instead of solid black area. Other colors are suffering too,
see http://imagebin.ca/view/ay3nrec.html.

The driver should be able to get you to the preferred mode of your monitor without much help from your xorg.conf if the monitor has an accurate EDID. Re glxinfo, you have bits of the Nvidia driver still installed: (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/libglx.so (II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation" compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0 Module class: X.Org Server Extension Re colors, I don't know about that one. Gamma or overlay related maybe? Are colors washed out everywhere or just mplayer? If it's just mplayer can you try a different output mode? (Something like -vo x11 on the command line.)
