Hey all. My name is Dante, big fan of Ubuntu and all that; but I have a problem, and I wonder if you guys can help...my laptop hates Nouveau, you see.
If I try and run Ubuntu on it, then I am faced with a non-starting X session. Now I'm not any good at this, I'm a non-programmer! Appending 'xforcevesa' to the boot options seems to work, but that only works in 10.04 (10.10 does not respond to this, nor 'nomodeset') to get to 10.10, I need to install 10.04 and upgrade...any suggestions? It works fine as soon as I install the NVIDA driver... Also, I'm looking around for a graphics card for another machine I'm building, and was wondering if anyone would care to help me out there...I'm looking for a good card (to power a TV through HDMI) that'll play nice with Compiz and Unity. Thanks for any help in advance :) -- -Danté Ashton Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici Sent from Ubuntu
