When the system is starting, the messages in the screen appears moved to the right side. I've found this in /var/log/errors.log file: Mar 25 17:51:18 laptop kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x001020FB ======= Mar 25 17:51:18 laptop kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x001020FB
Hi Max Are you still having problems with nouveau ? Can you describe the issue a bit more (a picture says a thousand words). Attach your dmesg and Xorg.0.log (if relevant) accoring to our bugpolicy [1] [1] http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs
Created attachment 68282 [details] dmesg
Created attachment 68283 [details] Xorg.0.log
A small additional info. This error msg occurs during VBIOS parsing: Oct 08 21:56:28 fractal kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 0 at offset 0xE2EF Oct 08 21:56:28 fractal kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x001020FB ======= Oct 08 21:56:28 fractal kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x001020FB ======= Oct 08 21:56:28 fractal kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:00:12.0: Parsing VBIOS init table 1 at offset 0xE440 See complete (and somewhat censored) dmesg and Xorg.0.log attached. Although Xorg log is scarcely relevant because these error messages do not seem to correlate to any visible problem. Distro: Archlinux uname -a: Linux fractal 3.5.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Oct 7 19:30:49 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux Machine: Acer Aspire 5520 laptop with NVIDIA GeForce(R) 7000M
Closing this bug to not confuse people even more. To state it clearly: the misaligned reg thing is no bug and normal on certain chipsets. It is most likely not correlated to any (real) bug you may encounter while using nouveau. Feel free to file bugs for any problems you have with nouveau, but this isn't one of them.
