...t got a GTX460 and I'm having a bit of trouble getting it running. In particular, when I modprobe "nouveau," the display goes black (but doesn't enter power saving, so there's a signal of some sort). After doing some searching, I found http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/KernelModeSetting If I unbind the nouveaufb driver, the console starts working again. If I re-bind it, it freezes. Other than the display not showing anything, the system seems to run properly. So clearly, this seems like a handover problem. Any suggestions for things I should try? I am using plain VGA righ...

...8:58:56 darkstar kernel: fb: conflicting fb hw usage nouveaufb vs VESA VGA - removing generic driver, - no problem when using a VGA mode (text only), this disregarding which X driver I use afterwards (I always start in console mode). But according to this page: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/KernelModeSetting I thought nouveaufb shouldn't conflict with vesafb ? Am I wrong ? I tried with modules shipped in vanilla 2.6.33.1 as well as the last Nouveau kernel repository pulled from git: no luck in both cases. I know there are easy workarounds: either use "VGA=ask", "VGA=ext" or &q...

Dear David Techer, I have read through your article on Xen VGA passthrough on http://www.davidgis.fr. It appears that the following command on your blog doesn''t work. dmesg | grep 01:00.0 | grep BAR The above command shows nothing at all. Is there an alternative solution? Thank you very much. Yours sincerely, Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)

...hen switching VTs either. I think there is probably a problem with KMS hand-over. Reproducible at least with: * vanilla 64-bit kernel 3.15.2 and 3.14.8 * openSUSE 13.1/x86_64 (3.11.10 kernel) * grml64-2014.03 live CD with 3.13.6 kernel [2] Yes, I've read: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/KernelModeSetting/ The consoles disappear (black only) once Nouveau switches to its framebuffer. If KMS is disabled, the consoles stay visible, i.e. vesa-fb works. Console switching still works, i.e. switching to/from VT7 where X11 runs fine is possible. When switching, the display goes black but switching back to...
