[Bug 553160] [NEW] Nouveau driver gives illegible screen on Nvidia 7150M (laptop)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

Screen is weird, partially out of view, visible parts overlapping and/or flickering.
Boot-up screen is also strange, ubuntu logo is in the lower right corner (probably a resolution issue).

Had to install using the 'xforcevesa' option - no "safe graphics mode"
seems to be available.

Post installation the screen stayed weird until the restricted nvidia
driver was installed.
