Dear all,

after having bad experiences with nouveau (using fedora 15,16,17) ,
which resulted in an immediate lockup of my old server machine,
i have given noveau another chance to run on a fedora kernel:

Linux version 3.5.3-1.fc17.x86_64 (mockbuild@)


The good is news is - it doesn't lead to immediate lockup of the machine
anymore.

The bad news. It still leads to a scrambled console screen, which does
not contain any useful information.

It seems that there is an "INVALID_CMD" issued by the noveau driver.

Can anybody help me to resolve this problem?



The hopefully useful information i have compiled in the attachements

dmesg |grep nouveau >nouveau-grep.txt
lspci |grep -i vga >vga-grep.txt
   cat /proc/version >version-grep.txt


Kind Regards
Dietmar
