This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-nvidia- tegra/6.8.0-1001.1 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-nvidia-tegra' to 'verification-done-noble-linux-nvidia-tegra'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-nvidia-tegra' to 'verification-failed-noble-linux-nvidia-tegra'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

We should drop it in favour of using simpledrm with fbdev emulation layer. This requires Kernel config changes: FB_EFI=n FB_VESA=n fbcon will still require FB to be available, but will use the fbdev emulation layer [ Test Plan ] * Ensure that systems currently relying on fbdev (and therefore only allowing Xorg logins) such as some virtual machine types, boot with working Wayland support. [ Where Problems could occur ] * When this stack is enabled, it changes boot timing such that some drivers may take a longer time to boot and GDM may hang in a black screen (bug 2039757). * Race conditions could be exposed to DE environments * Software that expects to find DRM device at /dev/dri/card0 may have a problem. * Some older versions of NVIDIA driver might not work properly.
