Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

  Using Ubuntu Natty up-to-date on a Dell Vostro 1500 with a GeForce
  8600M GT GPU. When I boot on the LiveCD or on a fresh install, nouveau
  seems to load correctly but all I get is a black screen.

  On the attached Xorg.log, the lines at 27.960 is when I press
  Ctrl+Alt+F1 to see if I can get a tty (I still get a black screen),
  and 31.965 is when I Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot the computer.

  Please let me know if you need additional informations.
