Confirmed on karmic daily liveCD from 09/09/09 with a nvidia 9400M graphic card (regular card, not hybrid). NV doesn't support this card, but for some reason the vesa fallback does not work; the user is sent to a text only login prompt. >From this terminal, creating a minimal xorg.conf to force

It does fall back to probe the devices using vesa, but that fails, so it goes further trying out fbdev (which fails with a more verbose message). Why vesa fails.. that's a mystery, but might be due to the dual-card setup or something. -- Karmic doesn't boot up on Studio XPS 1340 with Nvidia Hybri

Third is the more fundamental issue of selecting which device and driver to use with a hybrid system. A simple solution would be to get a behavior consistent with the previous patch. But a better solution would be for it to try -nv on each card, and then if both fail, try -vesa on each. I've fil

Second is the issue that if a card is not supported by -nv, the xserver should not attempt to boot -nv, but rather use -vesa. I've filed this issue upstream as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23045 - sub to this one if you wish; it's probably the more likely bug to get solved in time

Fundamentally I think we have at least three separate bugs here. First, the lack of support for 0866 cards. There's several bug reports upstream about lacking support for 9400 cards, such as fdo #19545, however none mentioned 0866 specifically, so I've filed an upstream bug with this request: ht

The original Jaunty patch referred to by Jerone is one I pulled in from RedHat, 170_primary_pci_video_device.patch. We were still carrying that patch up until the 28th (at which point it was dropped as already included in debian when 1.6.2.901-1 was merged in). But the actual cause of this is not
