dmesg
Hi all,
I am trying to use the discrete graphics (nVidia) graphics card option on my
T420s in order to use the DisplayPort connector, and am currently unable to
start X under Debian Wheezy.
Under advice from IRC, I've upgraded Wheezy with the following components:
Linux kernel 3.7-rc3 from kernel.org
libdrm-2.4.39
xf86-video-nouveau git (commit 8c3e1623b0be15f8cc590d893bfd19be87bd079a)
However I am still unable to start with the new driver in place. When starting
X, the fbconsole remains visible on screen and then "hangs" for nearly a minute
before the login TTY appears again. There are some messages emitted in Xorg.log
and dmesg which are attached to this bug report, along with the output of
lspci.
Many thanks,
Mark.</pre>
