I found a way to disable the nouveau driver. Go to /etc/modprobe.d directory and open blacklist.conf in a text editor. Type:
#nouveau blacklist nouveau This will stop thd kernel from loading the module. You will not get the resolution ability but is stops the flickering. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973610 Title: Flickering Screen - X Display Problem Nouveau DRM [12.04 Beta2] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/973610/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
