[Bug 1439786] Re: 10de:0cbc [HP EliteBook 8540w] Max resolution of 1024x768 with nouveau

 

Christopher you were absolutely right. The nouveau-firmware package was
not installed.

But even now after installing it, adding an initramfs hook and creating
a new initrd the driver does not seem to load correctly.

Attached I added the new dmesg and lspci -vvv output.

Title:
  10de:0cbc [HP EliteBook 8540w] Max resolution of 1024x768 with nouveau

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After a fresh installation of Vivid I only have a resolution of
  1024x768.

  Using xrandr and a custom xorg.conf file I might be able to get a
  bigger resolution (not finished testing it now).
