Hi Joanand, I based my patches on the linux-3.18 branch of Nouveau's repo, which is more up-to-date than 3.17-rc6: this explains the "if (nouveau_noaccel)" at least. Great for the kernel panic! I noticed that using the patches, screen resumes correctly when resuming the computer, rather than staying completely black. Well, I'll work 9600M Gt acceleration, but I can't say if I'll succeed, nor when. ;) Best regards</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
