Title:
  nouveau: Probe of 0000:03:00. 0 failed with error -22 "Unknown maxwell
  chipset", "Unknown Chipset, 0x118010A2"

Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Fresh, clean install of Ubuntu 15.10 threw this on first boot.

  When installing, i had to select "Try Ubuntu" (Boot to the desktop).
  Selecting "Install Ubuntu" threw a fatal Ubiquity error loop.

  in that case the main cause was determined to be Ubiquity not being
  able to detect my Graphics Chip, a Combination Intel HD graphics chip
  and an Nvida 840m chip.

  the errors in question:

  nouveau ![  DEVICE][0000:03:00.0] unknown Maxwell chipset
  [    0.734866] nouveau E[  DEVICE][0000:03:00.0] unknown chipset, 0x118010a2

  A better description of the ubiquity Problem: the screen appeared in greyscale. the installer immediately threw a Ubiquity fatal error, then dropping to a oddly spaced message screen with an error, "Failed to load login", or to that effect. Eventually, after 5-6 minutes, a message stating that X.org "Failed to determine  my graphics card", asking me to select default setting, which also failed.

  reloading it in desktop mode, then installing fixed this issue, and i
  was able to install successfully
