[Bug 759562] Re: [natty] X uses software rendering with nouveau

 

Sorry, about the text console: no video signal (according to my LCD
monitor's opinion) during the boot, and if I switch to text console from
X (like with CTRL-ALT-F1) I still see the X session however screen is
not updated, till I switch back and of course mouse etc does not work
either. Meanwhile I can log in "blindly" and even start an mp3 with
mpg123 by using the console even if I only see the screen of X frozen
(till I switch back). But as I've mentioned, maybe it's not related to
this bug which is about having software rendering only.

I've just checked it out:

lgb@vega:$ ls -la /usr/lib/dri/*nou*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 220068 2011-04-11 08:15 /usr/lib/dri/nouveau_vieux_dri.so

Should I try symlink this to nouveau_dri.so? Since it seems X wants
that, but I have onlyt this "vieux" (whatever it is ...) file only which
seems to be at least similar (in file name at least) to what X would
like to dlopen().
