Inquiry on Nouveau driver compatibility and documentation updates

[David Hedlund]

Dear Nouveau community,I have a few inquiries regarding Nouveau driver 
compatibility and documentation:

 1. Is there a comprehensive list of graphics cards compatible with
    Trisquel 11.0.1 and the Nouveau driver?[1]
 2. Would it be beneficial to include version compatibility information
    in the tables on the CodeNames page
    (https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/CodeNames.htm
    <https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/CodeNames.htm>)?
 3. The CodeNames page suggests using |dmesg | grep -i chipset|to
    identify the chipset. However, this command yields no output on my
    system. I found that |lspci -v | grep -A 12 VGA|provides the
    necessary information. Could this alternative command be added to
    the documentation for users experiencing similar issues?

Thank you for your attention to these matters. Your assistance in 
improving the documentation and clarifying compatibility information 
would be greatly appreciated.
