alessio, I think I have taken the wrong approach with this bug. Per your initial report and what information was gathered by apport, the nouveau package was not installed on your computer.
"...MachineType: Dell Inc. Vostro 1000 Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (not installed) ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=UUID=..." I know that you said that you were able to upgrade to maverick once you removed nouveau but perhaps the issue was something else. Can you check "/var/log/dist-upgrade/" again and attach to this report any and all logs located there. Also attach any Xorg files in "/var/log/" -- do-release-upgrade report error on upgrading from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658458 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
