Ah, I see. They're listed in the attached Xorg.log.0 and lspci outputs. In the first Xorg.log.0 you attached, the NV xserver says:
(--) Chipset Unknown NVIDIA chip found and the chip detected by PCI probe: (--) PCI:*(1:0:0) nVidia Corporation GeForce 7100 GS rev 161, Mem @ 0xd0000000/24, 0xc0000000/28, 0xd1000000/24, BIOS @ 0xd2000000/17 isn't listed as supported by the NV server startup list. The other two Nvidia chips you list: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation NV35 [GeForce FX 5900] [10de:0331] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400M GS [10de:0427] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) are both listed as supported by the NV xserver. I wonder if that affects the differences in behavior you're seeing? I also wonder why you're not seeing the problems reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/147623 with your GeForce 8400M machine. -- rec -- -- hardy 64bit live cd GFX issues https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
