Tom Winterhalder, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. I'm confused as to why I'm not seeing nouveau in your attach lspci or dmesg, when it is supported as per http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix/ .
Hence, do you have the package nouveau-firmware installed? If so, is it loaded at boot time as noted in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nouveau-firmware/+bug/1309134 ? ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439786 Title: 10de:0cbc [HP EliteBook 8540w] Max resolution of 1024x768 with nouveau Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After a fresh installation of Vivid I only have a resolution of 1024x768.
