--- Comment #5 from wixbisce at guerrillamail.com <wixbisce at guerrillamail.com> ---
Karol Herbst gave me this here to put into
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nouveau.conf:

Section "Device"
        Identifier "NvidiaCard"
        Driver "nouveau"
        BusID "PCI:01:00:0" # PCI bus address of the Nvidia GPU here
EndSection

I had to create xorg.conf.d first. Afterwards i put the config file there
inside.

Now i also see in the xorg.log NOUVEAU(0). Lets hope the machine works fine
now.

I think this should be fixed so that normal user dont have to struggle around
with this. I think i am a more advanced user. The person i help here that would
like to switch to Linux told me now about 10 times that he would not have been
able to do that what i did (understand that its nouveau, report a bug, know
about IRC, join IRC, dmesg things, lsmod things, ...).

This is a machine with 8 CPU cores, support up to 32GB of RAM, ... It have been
updated few times. Its just for office usage. The GPU have 512MB of VRAM. I
have played good looking games on 128MB of VRAM.
The system should not crash in office mode (browsing the emails in a email
software, not browser).
