Created attachment 44576 [details] [review] nouveau patch for xorg As for the newest kernel versions all have by default the nouveau/drm kodule with kms support I would propose to set the nouveau driver as well as standard in xorg. The automatic detection tries to load the best driver and is hardcoded into the xorg-server so I think it would be wise to change nv to nouveau (nv is not supported/maintained by nvidia anymore and the range of cards supported and even the features are inferior to the nouveau driver). Enclosed is the patch for xorg.
Xorg server patches must be submitted to xorg-devel for review before applying: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/SubmittingPatches http://wiki.x.org/wiki/XServer#DevelopmentProcess Xorg server policy changes must be discussed on xorg-devel to reach consensus before adopting. Sticking this in bugzilla and not on the list basically leaves it to be considered at some unknown future date when someone decides to send it on to the list. Of course, when this is sent to the list it will be NAK'ed in it's current form, as nouveau is not available on all kernels supported by Xorg. (Hint: #ifdef linux)
We know about nouveau now.
I was only 7 years too early thank you for closing it
