Booting with nouveau.modeset=0 disables the driver, probably not what you want unless you intend to switch to the Nvidia blob. > Next, I installed the kernel from experimental (linux-image-3.7-trunk-486). > No problem with the installation but the lock up situation is not solved. > The behavior has changed, though.

This seems to have been reported upstream recently, see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61287. Have you tried booting with nouveau.noaccel=1 yet? That seems to be the only way to obtain stability on N4VE. Cheers, Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
