Hi,
I have a problem that my nouveau driver does not properly load every time I
boot my laptop.
It either:
- defaults to the vesa driver (always if my power cord is plugged into the
laptop
- starts nouveau but without the external monitor
- starts nouveau WITH the external monitor (as it should be)
(starting without the monitor attached and then connecting it always fails &
crashes X)
How/where can i find any help for this?
Details:
- Ubuntu 12.10.
- card: VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G86 [GeForce 8400M GT]
(rev a1)
- kernel 3.5.0-25-generic
- X.Org X Server 1.13.0 Release Date: 2012-09-05
- all nv & nvidia drivers are blacklisted
- the problem has grown worse over the last 2 years
- motherboard replaced 2 years ago because of overheated nvidia card (waaranty)
