           Summary: DRM/Nouveau Blank Screen with 8500 GT
           Product: DRI
           Version: XOrg CVS
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/other
        AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: kjwinchester@gmail.com


I have been attempting to run the Nouveau driver on an 8500 GT card I recently
obtained, and all I get is a blank screen when I boot as soon as KMS kicks in.

I attach logs next, but anything else that I can do to help I can attempt.

Boot log with drm.debug=1

A couple of notes:

- I also have a Radeon 9200 AGP card in the box, for which KMS works great, so
luckily I still get a working system even though the nouveau driver fails. 
Thus the log shows that card's processing as well.

- With the mainline Linus kernel, I was seeing slightly different message
telling me that TMDS table version 2.0 was not yet supported.  The attached log
is with latest nouveau kernel git and no longer has that message.  But the end
result is still the same - a screen that does not switch to the KMS framebuffer
mode.
