[Bug 773516] [NEW] nouveau driver does not provide 3D so no Unity on Thinkpad T420s

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

Installed Natty on a ThinkPad T420s in the cert lab with the nVidia
chipset.  By default, the nouveau driver is loaded and runs, but this
does not include any 3D and thus, no Unity.

>From a quick and non-thorough search on google, Nouveau should be able
to provide 3D acceleration but apparently not everyone packages the
extra bits necessary for this.
