Right; I did indeed have an external monitor; a TV (Sharp), but unplugging it has not changed the problems encountered with 10.04.
I've tried alpha 3 and daily live of 10.10, but there seems to be an error (Unknown keyword in configuration file) which appears to be a known problem; apparently it did not exist with alpha 2 nor 1, so I guess I'll have to wait and see what happens here before I can confirm this bug has been squished -- Nouveau in Ubuntu does not work on NVIDIA GeForce 8200M https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/605414 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
