Hi, in dmesg 3.16.0 starting at line 492 nouveau driver starts init and works ok in dmesg 3.19.0 starting at line 500 nouveau driver starts init and then fails
the result is the system console does not work with new kernel. the only printout on the screen is: starting version 219 if I pass in yaboot the following parameters: video=offb:off nouveau.modeset=0 then at least the system gets to the text console. ** Attachment added: "dmesg for 3.19.0 - problem" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1458174/+attachment/4403055/+files/dmesg-3.19.0-18-powerpc64-smp.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1458174 Title: nouveau driver does not work on G5 quad on Ubuntu 15.04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After upgrading from 14.10 to 15.04 on my Powermac G5 Quad nouveau driver stopped working.
