Thank you! Now, I'd appreciate some hints on how to make console work, at least. How are the video modes controlled, e.g., can I have some analogue of /etc/fb.modes for nouveau? -Yury On 01/06/16 20:38, poma wrote: > On 01.06.2016 13:48, Yury Tarasievich wrote: ... >> 1) Console does not initialise the output >> correctly if video mode is not restricted to >> 640x480

Hey guys, Let me reformulate my question: The nouveau.ko (2015-12-16) calculates and tries to set wrong 'modelines' for my G98 hardware for the most of video modes in console; even 640x480 gets weird vertical refresh 68Hz. Can it be fixed at all? Can the correct modelines be supplied to nouveau.ko somehow? Last but not least, would anybody bother with making driver work with
