[Bug 605414] Re: Nouveau in Ubuntu does not work on NVIDIA GeForce 8200M

 

Right. After the few months I've been chased by this bug, the KDE forums
were of great help to finding a solution;


Edit boot options and add "xforcevesa" to it. This will start Ubuntu in low graphics mode, which is carried across to the installation. The new driver is a bit of lost cause here, but the VESA driver will see you through.

I'm unsure about what information I could provide here for this bug; but
I would ask for a stopgap measure; that the VESA driver is called for if
my model graphics card is detected.
