[gfariello <gabriele_fariello@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Affects me as well (X42JV-X1), affects Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 and derived
distros (Mint 8/9 Kubuntu, etc).

nouveau will not use nVidia 335M. It is loaded, but only the integrated
intel chip is used. Black screen occurs when telling X  to use nouveau
or nvidia device drivers (from restricted repos or downloading from
nVidia and compiling). Cannot change to console or boot into safe mode.

Disabling glx / intel drivers does not solve the problem.

I'm not entirely sure if rendering a laptop unusable should be a "low"
priority bug.

Thanks folks.
