It appears I can reproduce this bug with the NV40. Starting Lucid with the external DVI-D connected and plymouth output mirrored it 'stops' with the plymouth splash screen as described previously.
Using Alt+SysReq+K to kill the processes on the current terminal (tty7 at this point) disk activity increases and Xorg restarts and presents the GDM greeter/log-in screen from where things progress. I've not yet seen any similar freeze after logging in, but maybe DJR013 can suggest an application/action that is almost guaranteed to produce one so I can test? -- NV18 GPU lockup with Nouveau https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
